Hi all, hopefully someone has some experience with these two shifters. Have had my eye out on the B&M Quick Click for sometime as well as the Hurst Autostick, and from what i can tell, both seem to be very similar. Been checking on fleabay here and there for some time and just my luck, someone has two for sale.

Autostick 3 - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HURST-Bananarama! ... SwlxNebT1f
Hopefully the price doesn't rise too much, but at the moment both are in my price range. Does anybody have any insight on both of these and which is better to get? Will the modern cable kits hurst/b&m sell work with something like this?
Cheers all

Re: Which Hurst shifter
A mate used to have an Autostick 1 years ago, seemed to work well and he raced the car for years. I had an Autostick 3 in a car and I didn't like it, it would miss gears as it didn't have the best ratchet mechanism. Neither use the same cables or brackets as the B&M stuff, they date from before Hurst & B&M were both owned by the Mr Gasket corporation, so a certain amount of creativity would be needed to use them.

Re: Which Hurst shifter
This is a Quick Click without the cover, wait for one to turn up or make your own..

Re: Which Hurst shifter
Cheers all for the advice. Looks like i'd go with the Autostick 1 over the 3. Cheers for the link blue, though i think i'd rather wait for a complete one rather than hope to find a cover later down the line.
With regards to the brackets, how creative are you talking, could an existing new kit be easily repurposed or are there lists of trackable parts that would work instead?
I Only ask as i want one of these to go from the column to floor so i have a bit of blank slate to play with.
