I considered doing something like that with a dial. Space is always a battle with these cars, as you know. Also thought about using a dial behind the dash with an extension rod attached to it, so the rod would poke out the dash.. Put a stock bezel and knob on the rod, so it appears to be just another dash switch of some kind. Still a rotary, just with a better look.
Blake at Sublime, really liked a stock ish console idea that I was working on but I just couldn't accept it. It just looked wrong. I think the shape is most of the problem. Then he said he had an idea.. Just do a boot like "Justin" did. The difference is that my shifter will appear to be a stock 69 shifter instead of the pistol grip and the crazy long throw.
