My Griffiths one is good but it slips every so often. Think it's done it a few times now but its a price of piss to swap back to stock without even taking it off, and I just keep a spanner and Allen key in the car jb case lol.
I have a compbrake one kicking about at home but haven't fitted it yet. With the linkages you can adjust it so it isn't a pain to get into 1st... It all depeds on how you set it up anyway...

I think my ge shifter was £25 but can't remember now.
As said by johnny rough the shaft up and loctite it when fitting and it wont slip, it never did on my old 6, I just bunged it on the nee one with no loctite he.ce why it may be slipping haha!

Ed before you buy the linkages, take my car for a drive. They do make a difference but nothing huge. you can make your mind up then if there worth the 35 quid
