Default bushings

so i ordered some of these Prothane polyurethane shifter bushings. they say more firmer and responsive shifting. i know your saying why would u buy those. cause they were only 10 bucks and i wanted 2 see if they would make a diffrence or not. i say if its cheap and supposed 2 make a diffrence then try it. has anyone else put these on their car?

I got a set but didn't install them yet. They should make a difference in shifting.

I got solid bushings on my shifter Last time i pulled the motor out, my bushing fell apart. So instead i ended up using some steel roll tubing with a bolt to take up some of the sloppy feel. It's nice n tight, but rattles like a bitch, really annoying :P But it does have nice tight shifts with that and the DC sports short-shifter.

I have a set of the Prothane shifter bushings in my Civic. They seem to work pretty good. I put them in when I made my "short shifter".
