yeah, i'm thinking a DIY custom job is the only way.

I could be wrong but I dont think they make such a thing.

They dont make such a thing, but i know of a guy who once took off the stock shifter, bought a pimp *** after market Napolex shift ****, and just switched it up, it took up less room than the last, i think thats the most viable solution to your problem...

If you find one maybe you could figure out a way to put a shift boot around if with an aftermarket **** so at least when your car is sitting still you don't have to be as embarassed that its an auto.

lol, thats kinda tough, but funny, but i think your best bet is to perhaps do some custom work on your dash, you said it blocks your radio? can you switch around the radio and heater/AC controls? just an idea.

Don't be hating on the guy, he's just trying to make controls more accessible. Shoot, sometimes I wish my shifter was a little shorter, then I could actually fit a CD in the empty tray below the head unit when the shifter is in park. I would laugh any other time if he wanted to make the automatic shift faster by doing this, but this is totally functional.
