OP
Looks like he is no longer selling them. I looked in eBay on he has none listed. I would follow the link in the first post of this thread and send him a message and see if he will be making any more.

For the guys who are swapping out their original shifters ... don't throw out your old one. I made perfectly good use out of mine. :beer-toast1:
Installed this today. Pretty cool but not perfect.
The part that slides in is too long. I had to drill a new Rpin hole, and shorten the rod. Works perfect, just have to find a knob now.

I bought the same exact part; came in this week and its sitting on my counter - tomorrow's project.
Didn't necessarily want to hear that, but not a deal killer. How much did you have to trim?
Where did the part come from? Been scouring, maybe my Google-fu needs brushing up on...
EDIT- Nevermind, just wasn't using proper keywords, found it!

Knob came in today. The rod should be here tomorrow. What thread adapters are you using? Took the knob to home depot and could not find a matching thread pitch in either SAE or metric. The threads on the knob are big but fine. Knob came with a thread adapter but not sure if it will work with rod yet, and it is plastic. Would prefer metal of course.
plastic.

Looks like the one I used, It was M16 thread. Have a look at my write up when I replaced mine.

@billiebob, I did the exact same thing. I got a replacement shift rod when the first one was too long, and the replacement was just the same. I trimmed the second one just like you did, drilled a new clip hole, perfect fit after that.
Thanks for the help. Just got my shift handle and knob in. The knob came with plastic thread adapters that of course stripped upon installation. Went to home depot and the knob is probably M16 but it is not an M16-2.0 the knob threads are finer than the thread pitch at HD. Only went on about a half turn.
That's what I ended up doing. I'm glad the angle is pretty good so I didn't have to adjust it. This is how mine looks installed. I might change my mind about the angle once I wheel, but happy for now.
I got mine (2, actually) on Ebay. The link to Ebay from my install posts no longer works, though, and a search may still turn up another seller.
You can see pics and details on my install of the TC shifter handle and knob on page 5 of the thread in my signature below.
