ZF 6 Short Shifter

Hey Guys,
I'm looking for a Short Shifter for my ZF6, anybody got any tips on where to look for one? I found one on Amazon.com but they want $261 and some change, little high I think, I know Mid West Trans used to make them but haven't heard weather they still do or not.

short shift kit

The short shift kit shown on Amazon if pictured correctly WILL NOT FIT a ZF-6 ! . I drove a truck with stock shifter the other day , wow what a difference .

Yea I noticed that the one pictured was not the one I've seen for our trucks, Clay used to sell them but had a problem getting them so I think he dropped them, can't find them on his site.
