the ebay SS was one of my first mods.. ive had it on the car for about 2 years and it was one of the metal ones.. paid around 25 for it.. its much shorter throw (i think the most agressive setting was 35% ish), and no more sloppy than my OEM shifter thats for sure.. i havnt used a JHM or BnM personally on a b5.. but im sure they are much "heartier" than this one.. meaning they feel much more solid in your hands.. but none the less.. for the money, it was well worth it..

when i get the b6 s4.. i think im gunna go with stratmospheres that they offer.. cant remember the name?

I never got around to ordering the ebay short shifter myself but found out theres one under the tree for me. Any write ups with pics or videos for this type of shifter, I can only find jhm write ups.

You can follow the B&M instructions, the ebay short shifter is a knock off of the B&M unit.

I was going to hold off on getting a short shifter until I could go for broke and get the JHM one, isn't the ebay one made of plastic?
ive installed one on my buddies b6 audi the down side is the instructions are really bad!!! but the upside is it works just like the B&M
