any short shifter install referrals in LA?
Can anyone recommend a shop in the Los Angeles area (preferably near Torrance) that has experience with installing short shifters?

I just bought a B&M, and wanted to make sure I had it put in by someone who had experience installing them on a 996.

Unless you think the install is easy enough for any performance shop mechanic to do...

Thank you,
Steve

Steve,
The install is easy enough for any owner with a slight bit of mechanical ability to do. Maybe there's some local guys that would help? I'd be glad to but LA is a bit of a drive from Seattle!
