well I cannot post a pic for you but I can do something else... DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DO NOT GET A B/M SHORT SHIFTER!!!
 
what's wrong with b/m short shifters? Do you just not like short shifters, or is it only b/m. i thought those were supposed to be good.
 
I want to know also, i never heard anything bad the B&M also.
btw the B&M doesn't look shorter, looks like the same height as the stock shifter to me, but feels very different.
I havent seen a B&M in awhile so dont take my word on it
 
I have the B&M, and I absolutely love it. It's probably one of the best mods that I've done so far. I have it set on the 50% setting. It feels great. I might be a little shorter height than the stock one, but not much.

I'll try to snap a pic tomorrow to show you.
 
Yes, I've never heard another bad word about the B&M, nothing but praise. I don't know that it appreciably shortens the stick, but with the shorter throw that should be moot, other than how cool a dinky little Maserati-looking shifter is. Ah, but shorter is further from the steering wheel, too.... precious milliseconds lost, grasshopper....
 
Yes it is a little shorter. its like 1/2 an inch maybe 3/4 of an inch. but it is longer from to bottom to provide the reduction. what i mean from the bottom is if you compare the stock one with the b&m, side by side and hold them together by the insert point where it holds onto(the center hole). the b&m is maybe 1 and 1/2 inches longer on the bottom. im just guessing on the length i didnt mesure it but from the looks of it. jus to give you an idea. I just installed mine but have not driven the car since its under major repair. Hope this helps. Miguel
 
I have a B&M shortshifter and i dont have any problems with it, i love it. I have it set at the 50% setting and although the actually hieght is not much shorter the shifts are much shorter. I miss gears rarely since i got it and i feel it enables for much quicker shifts.
