Yes its worth it, one of the funnest mods to do on your car, not overly hard just pay attention to instructions.

I agree also....its really a simple install, and way worth it, it makes your car feel a bit more sporty when driving
I personally have an ebay one, my friend has a B&M, we really cant see much of difference in them (besides the price)(ebay is way cheaper)
I dont know about southern Ontario.....but any mechanic should be able to do it for relatively cheap....and to tell the truth i really dont see how anyone could mess up on the install because its a few bolts, and snapping the link on and off the bottom of the shifter itself
hope this helped


patience is a virtue.....i just didnt stand in line long enough to get any

Well worth it, but do it on a warm day. I did mine when it was about freezing outside and by the time I was done the sun was well set and hard to see from it. Getting the top off was a PAIN for me. Everyone else seems to have hardly any problems but my car was maybe a few months old and the glue wasn't giving. I had to get a hacksaw to do it. I worried about it but seeing how I tossed my old shifter away after a year, it doesn't matter anymore.
