Default help with my shifter????

i should be getting my b&m short shifter in the mail today and i was wondering i haven't had a chance to but how hard is it to change it out and are there any tricks to taking it apart. if someoneone who has done this can tell me something so i don't have to spend 100$ at a shop getting it installed.
Thanks

I got the SRT-4 style short throw shifter that had the whole shifter assembly (the one from dodgeparts.com) and it wasnt that hard to install. If i remember right, it took me maybe two hours for complete installation, and i'm not exactly the most knowledgeable car guy on these forums.
Anyway, you should be able to install it pretty easily.

The B&M if I'm not mistaken is just the shaft only. It shouldn't be that hard to do, I've done a B&M on another car and it wasn't too bad. Just follow the directions they give you. Figure about an hour to hour and half to do it.

Why not check the service manual on the
"Neon" web site.
Lots of useful diagrams and instructions.
