I got out my handy dandy Dremel tool and trimmed off this item. Now the shifter sits approximately 1/4 lower than before. Not much, but it does help some.

It's a nice conversation piece at the dealership and car meets.

if u want it lowered more than .25 inches then go ahead and cut the stalk. otherwise its not worth the trouble
