i just got a simple one from apc in my teg, the only problem i had with it was needing to use more spacers hooking it up. other than the install it has been great.

short shifters dont always necessarily make the shifter appear smaller. and i got one off ebay. it works perfectly fine, and the throws are 25% of what i had with the stock shifter.

Unless you are straight ramming the shifter you shouldn't have a problem. I had a cheap aluminum one in my old CRX and it worked fine.

I have a Hurst shifter in my crx and I love it, it's black and it looks stock besides 'Hurst' imprinted on the side. I just threw my stock shift knob on it so its not all flashy and shit. Oh and mine sits stock height, its not like half the length so it's still comfortable.
