counter sunk shifter?
is that what it's called? where you have a lever under the shifter so you pull up and shift into revers rather than push the shifter down and to reverse? Anyone have it setup? easy to install and function.. how do you like it..

"Countersunk" is not the correct terminology to use here. You are looking for the old style Corvette reverse lockout device where there was a "T" handle that was pulled up to access the reverse gate. You would have to re-design the whole shifter stick base assembly to incorporate such a device. We already have a lockout of sorts. It is very difficult to enter the reverse gate so long as the car is moving, either forward or in reverse. Why do want such a "T" device? For looks?

My Ford Focus has one. And the Supra Turbo does too.
It's always fun watching the valet guys try to put it into reverse. I can see them struggling.
As far as personal preference, I prefer the T-ring to pull up.
