Default Short Shifter for 2001 Ford Laser 1.6L

Hey everyone,

Recently purchased a 2001 Ford Laser LXI 1.6L hatch the other day for my daily to and from work. It's a great all round car and in very good condition. I'm about to replace the spark plugs and leads over the coming weeks. I would also like to install a short shifter, but can't seem to find one online. Can anyone help me source one? Can I get one for the Mazda equivalent?

Thanks.

Cut a couple inches out and weld it back together!

I want to shorten the actual throw of the shift. You know how a short shifter works right? I don't want to shorten the length of the shifter

Will products for the Mazda Protege fit the KN Laser?
