you mean something like this


Then all you need to do is go to your chevy dealer and get the manual shifter boot.

I want to do this too. I'm thinking about ordering this one and playing around with it to see if I can get it to work.

I don't think those will work, but then I could be wrong.

If I started this thread I'd be crucified.

After you find your boot you should look in to the button shifter.

I would get that button paddle shifter knob but i never use manual mode. S mode combined with competetive mode stabil/tc is plenty fine for me, my car shifts real hard and right on the money in S mode, perfect for me. I like the idea of making it look like a manual shifter with the ball and the boot but I dunno if it can be done.
