Question Difference between under car and in car SS?

I'm sure this has been asked a bazillion times before but the search function on this forum really bites!

Can some explain to me the difference between these two SS kits and the pros and cons of each?? I have been thinking of adding the SS to my mod list but I would like to also hear feedback from people who have it and whether it is worthwhile. Also, if they could describe to me the difference in "feel" between the regular stock shifter and the SS as I havent ever actually used one in any of my other vehicles.

Thanks for the info in advance Guys/Gals.

Kev

Never used the under-car SSK, but I heard it works well and it's adjustable. You still get a semi-sloppy shift from the OEM in-car linkage with the plastic parts. I've had the B&M in-car SSK for several years and really like it. Initially, it is stiff and notchy. As it ages, the shifts get smoother needing less effort. Plus it's a breeze to install.
