Default Apikol has the least impact on shifting force, but also has the least improvement

Billzkat shifter has the most impact in shifter travel but increases the shifting force proportionally.

***** are stock S4, 6-speed S6, and S6+ from L-R. The thing I like about the S6+ is the dimples match the center of the sport steering wheel.

Default On that same theme, anyone put LEDs in the sunroof control panel to illuminate the center console?

Drove an allroad, had it and very nice touch. I know it was a "big" conversion for VW guys cuz the W8 came with it and most other VWs didn't. I really like the effect but I don't want to drill holes in that panel unless I read some BTDT's.

I making my XMAS list right now and I think the Rieger ill **** is on there. What the heck. Besides, Skollie did it and he's so cooooool.
