Which aftermarket shifter would be the best for my 2004 Cobra?

There really isnt that much difference in short throw shifters. As long as they are well known brands (mgw, pro 5.0, summit, bbk, etc...) it should work the same.

I have a steeda tri-ax and I like it. I would recommend either the tri-ax or the mgw. They seem to be the most popular.

Not all shifters are the same.. not by far.

I've had MGW, Steeda and the 5.0 on my Cobra... The MGW was the best by far.

MGW FTW!

I've had a couple of different brands and the knobs seems to be about the biggest difference. Wouldnt think it would be any different on a termi, but who knows

I like my Steeda pretty well. Makes third a lot easier than the sucky stock shift to third.

Where would be the best place to purchase a shifter that has a good price for it?
