I use an old school wood ball, drilled to fit & sit down low on the shortened threads. There is a short piece of shaped heater hose under it for comfort & insulation.

Was there a difference in shifter threads between S4 and S5?

Yeah the S3 and S4 use thick shafts with Toyota style threads, while the S5 and S6 (and later) use the thinner Miata style shafts and threads

i have a generic silver universal shift **** from auto zone, and guess what! it serves the same purpose as all shift *****, only for 15 dollars.

its also a lot smaller and looks a little better, it does improve my shifting capabilities.

i just used the boot and **** from an older 323... the plastic wasn't threaded, but all you have to do is twist and it threads it for you and it works good
