if you found the right material you could probably do it with a dremel if you took your time. my auto wont be able to partake in this but i would like to see it done. sounds like a nice mod to me if you can get it to come out lookin nice
Could it even work in the Vibe? Isn't the stick mounted on one pivot, whereas with a shift gate, the stick slides around? If it's on a pivot, it wouldn't exactly work as intended.
