if it'll fit or not, I'm not sure.

but as for H and A Accessories, yes, they are legit. Heard of many people ordering from them though I've never personally ordered anything from them.

I've made several orders with handa-accessories.com, they are legit. They are a dealer who just give internet customers a mechanic's discount (20% to 25%). They used to be called honda-accessories, but I think that Honda's corporate office came down on them (remember, they are a dealer so they don't want to upset corporate) for having "honda" in the name, so they switched it to "handa". Since they are a Honda dealer, the stuff they sell is the exact same things that you would buy from your local Honda dealer. Just less expensive.

And I am also wondering if that shift **** would fit - I was about to order the leather shift **** for my '99 LX from handa-accessories (along with some maintenance items), but that's a pretty sharp looking ****.

Back to the mechanic's discount, when a mechanic goes to your local Honda dealer (assuming they have an account with them), they don't pay MSRP, they pay a mechanics price which is 20% to 25% lower than MSRP, plus they don't pay sales tax and get the parts delivered to their shop. The mechanic then charges you, the customer, MSRP of course. This is why mechanics don't like it when you bring your own parts to them.

Well most shift **** threads are usually universal. I don't see why not.

It's more of a question of whether the boot will connect to it, and whether it's angled.

Is the slope of a stick in a 5th generation the same as a 6th and 7th generation stick?
