Overall I like the shifter. It's smooth and tight. The instructions show using a zip tie with the boot, however there is nothing on how to remove the silver piece. That being said I just put the boot on with the silver piece on and it works just fine. The only other feedback is to secure the ball another way, every now and again it will loosen as I am shifting. Last bit of feedback is an insulation piece like MGW provides. It will probably increase price but it will be worth it. Otherwise this is a great product and
