Yeah you cant really go wrong! and in my opinion its a fantastic change in feel, i dont think i would want to drive without it anymore. one thing i dont think has been pointed out yet though is you will have to modify the plastic surround to get it back on cause the adaptor sits a bit too high, its easily done but i left mine as it is in the pic as i like the look!

Here's a close up of mine on the ATR if ti helps. I didn't tighten up the little screw to the gear stick first of all and it didn't feel right, so use the screw to tighten it all up.
1st gear and others were sometimes a little awkward for the first few uses, but that soon stopped.
Still have a little trouble with first every now and then, but it is worth it, especially with a polybushed front engine mount, changing gears is sexual.

Yep. I really like it. Took a bit of getting used to, you think is that really in gear. But so easy now to shift between. Really quick. Still feels like a bolt action rifle. I love it.
Will upload a few pictures and videos to show the difference tomorrow in my Lude profile
