Console and Aftermarket Shifter

Hey, Im not gonna be able to use a stock shifter on my car, and even if i could they are getting way to expensive to find. I want the car to look good, clean, and original looking, so i was wondering if anyone has fitted an aftermarket shifter in a original 68'-70' barracuda console? If so how hard was it? I realy dont want to just buy a cheesy looking HURST, or B&M shifter and just bolt it to the floor. Thanks for any feedback!
