Default Hurst shift *****

I saw these at part source the other day, there the aluminum t handle that say Hurst on the top. But they are only for manual cars. Id like to try to drill one and and some how take a peice of aluminum to make a button out of it. but that seems like it would be alot of work, i also thought of just putting it on and making it so the button is always pushed in, but then again i dont wanna accidentally shift gears while im driving. Any other ideas on how i could hook up the button with the least amount of work possible. I think it would really look good. At 50 bux a pop i dont really wanna experiment on to many of them
