    Yes
    I just drilled a hole sightly smaller than the nut then used a dremel to make some grooves so the nut would slide in. Then I used some super glue made for plastic to secure it. BTW a cue ball is alot softer than other billard balls. I shattered the 8 ball I had when I tried to tap the nut in.

    Yeah it's 12 x 1.25. Go to a decent hardware store though because it's kind of an odd size.

    too bad C2C isn't around anymore. Couldn't be more pleased with it:

    And just a heads up, for those of you with short shifters, a heavier shift knob will help with shifting. Think of it as kinda like momentum help.

    The thread size is the same for a 05+ mustang. They have a lot of options for those.
