From an early 90's cavalier. It is a direct swap for 85-92 firebird auto shifters. It matches the steering wheel perfectly, unlike the 85-90 bird shifter I had before. (Ignore the ashes and empty cigarette packs on the floor, my car was filthy when I took these )

Another, showing how it matches the color and texture on the wheel. I took these pics at night, so the camera flash kinda made it look like they don't match.

Well guys,you have to realise that generally prices for car parts and accessories are more expensive here than with you in the USA.
When I bought my seats,i also took my rear seats and door panels to Cobra and they covered everything to match.Then I bought a hide of leather from them in the same colour and had a local upholsterer cover the dash pad,arm rests,radio console and door pockets.The totel cost was something around £2000 which is around $3000.
The other reason why it was all expensive was that I had the leather and alcantara option which is the dearest material.You can get cloth ones for a lot less
Try http://www.subesports.com/ they are the USSA distributor

cheers

If you are talking about the shift ****, they are sold separately. I had the wheel first and then bought a matching **** when I installed the TKO last winter. BTW, the center cap is now a pontiac emblem on the wheel ;-).

I installed the early style shifter assembly into my 89 iroc, and have painted the round plastic ball white. I love the round ***** better, something about the other ones I dont like, maybe because my old 86 had the round leather one. Anyways, I will get some pics and try to post them. It looks really unique, like the old days with the white 4-spd ball.

I have that color interior in my '84 Z-28--- Changing it to gray because it's pretty torn up and I found some nice gray stuff at the junkyard. Do you need any pieces?
My 5 sp. **** is round, black plastic. I don't really like the way it looks but it feels right. Thinking about replacing w/ an aluminum powder coated or anodized one.
I also thought about a Hurst T or a B&M T- type.....
