Default kind of shift ****? Anything that uses set screws, iw Momo, Sparco, etc...or depending the diameter

of the B&M rod, just put a thread on it with a die. pic up a cheap tap ad die set, use the old shifter the determin the threading and turn the new one,,,

My 01.5 used the old style shifter. New shifter was introduced late in 01.5 run.

Default I don't know... Mine has threads that the stock ***** screw right onto

Maybe you have the wrong part number after all, or somehow their Q/A let one get out without threading?
