[QUOTE=imavunderbrah]ok, fine My Whalen gets extremely cold and extremely hot... so when I first get in the car I either cover it with something, or just grab right below the ****...

NO. Like I said in my above post, my **** used to get about 1,000 degrees after sitting in the sun. You really dont want to touch the ***, there for you are throwing quicker shifts then you ever have before in regular traffic. (Chocking the chicken is no fun.)

Here is something funny.:smile: Like I said we have a shift **** cozee to keep the **** warm. I am the one that originally thought of the idea long time ago. The funny thing is my legal name is Whalen, but it is spelled Waylen. So either way I have a Waylen shift **** with or without cozee. HA HA

I know I shouldn’t touch this line with a nice warm cozy **** cover, but…

I bet I could get your **** off properly.

Gear Shift Cozies

Go to galleries and the search function and under user name put in glmini and it will bring up the images and you can enlarge them. If that does not work send a PM to glmini with your email address and I will attach them and send back.

How about trying a handball. They seem to be about the same size and come in all kinds of different colors. You could cut a slit in the ball and slide it right over the ****.
