Gearstick

Whilst I'm sure the gearstick on the new Mini would grow on me, I find it a tad awkward! Having just come from a roadster and all I like a slick gearstick! lol
Can anybody point me in the direction of some good retrofit ones? I checked ebay but all they have is old skool mini ones.

Thumbs up

The Whalen is fantastic and a great excuse to personalise your MINI further . I wouldn't be without mine now.
