if you have a square shift **** there is a litte U pin on the front of it(side closest to the hvac) and if you have a round shift **** its underneath the button

I'm curious, I have the square ****, but kinda like the round **** better. if they install differently are you still able to do a swap easy?

unfortunatly you have to swap out the entire shifter bcause of the way that the round ball and the square one are attached to the stick. simple swap though.

If you are like me and are sick of the square shifter (no pun intended) then you can always swap it out for the "T" shifter out of a firebird.

I did that last year, it's a direct swap. Totally worth it.

$5.00..... how can one go wrong?
