Overall experience;
Their customer service is lacking.
They are in Australia.
Seems like a big company from tons of advertising and a professional website, but after my experience feels like one guy working out of his garage when he gets home from his job at the mill. Who knows....
What I ordered;
-left side mount S1 T56 Viper shifter assembly
-direct high lever shifter - 3rd pic
-electronic gear indicator - 4th pic
-gauge cup insert for indicator - 5th pic
-sensor and mount - 6th pic
-shifter weatherproof surround - 7th pic
No instructions or specs, you have to download them from their site. There are plenty of videos on you tube.

They were quick sending my shifter, but they forgot everything else.
1 of 6 items received lol. No phone number to call, took a couple days to get an email response, and it was less than a one sentence answer... no apology etc. A couple days later a tracking number sent. A day or two later, tracking shows Las Vegas, not Pittsburgh. Another email sent, and another day or two for a response. Said it is being redirected. Four days later, on hold but says Pittsburgh on the tracking number. Sits in LA for a day or 2. Four more days to Cincinnati, then there for two, and that is where I am at...... waiting.
The reason I chose this shifter.....
The t56 H pattern in our trucks is sloppy, especially compared to the t56 in my 07 and 08 GT500 mustangs. I spend way too much time looking for gears, especially high gear up down shifts. So, I had driven a gt500 drag car with this shifter a few years ago and loved it. The way it works is simple, you still use a clutch pedal, but shifts are only - to the front and + to the rear in a straight line. The shifter moves everything with a cam on it's own. Pretty slick, you can't miss a gear.
