Porsche Boxster 986 or 911 996 Ben Auto Design Shifter Side Lever and Gyrhead Shift Improvement Kit

We remove the centre console on our Porsche Boxster 986 and install the Ben Auto Design (BAD) Shifter Side Lever Upgrade and Gyrhead Shift Improvement Kit.
I paid full price and haven’t had any sponsorship deals with either of them. You could get away with doing just the side lever if you shim the shifter like in my previous art 1 video on the gear shifter.

Bearing of the Gyrhead Shift Improvement Kit from eBay link can’t be found. Is this company still making these? And with the BAD side shift would this still work with the eBay/Amazon/AliExpress shifter? Cheers

@@onelife1love try contacting them directly as I see they are still a EBay seller www.ebay.com.au/usr/gyrhead and yes it works with a cheap shifter. I do suggest saving up and getting the Numeric shifter. It is 100% a different experience and worth it. Even if you hunt down a used one. In my other video there is a discount code for Numeric. Not sure if it still works but worth checking

[@davidshaw164]

That honestly looks awful ngl.

[@TheEddysGarage]

The internals that you do see or the shift knob? I have since replaced it all with a Numeric shifter and it is next level in feel and precision. There is a video on our channel of the install with a comparison between this and 3 other shifter options for the 986/996

[@davidshaw164]

@@TheEddysGarage the side lever part just looked kinda jank and crooked… but it sounds like you got the ultimate upgrade anyway.

[@TheEddysGarage]

@@davidshaw164 the stock plastic lever is also on an angle. Installing the BAD leaver did make a big difference in shifter precision.

What size are those roller bearings?
