cant tell you anything about debadging it but the shift **** thing ive done so i can tell ya

first off you have to take the tiny alan screw out the side
then depending on which **** (aftermarket) your replacing it with depends on how it attachs
i bought the manual shift **** that lights up neon blue
but i have an auto trans so i basically took a dremel and very carefully cut 2 extra slots about 2-3" long from the top of the shaft down
the problem you run into when you go with an aftermarket **** without a button for the auto trans is that u can put it on with out any fabricating but then the button is always pushed down...big problem...you could be going 80 down the interstate accidently hit it into reverse...and theres your tranny 500 ft behind you lmao. hence why i made the 2 extra cuts. because my new **** has 3 alan screws all around not just one on the side. so with the cuts i made into it i can push the **** straight down to move the gear selector and it pops back up on its own. only problem is its a little wobbly. doesnt come off with amount a decent amount of pull(more than accidently pulling it off or it vibrating off or just jumpin off for no reason) but tight enough to stay on and straight while installed.

so you can do the aftermarket manual **** install if you like those better than the auto ones ( which i do ) and if you want i can take some pics of the cuts and the finished product if you would like
