That got it. I was curious if it was enough of a difference that I should add it to my "want" list. It's not. Thanks for posting that.
Oh, the only Regal I'm interested in is a T-Type.

Just FYI, this part number^ is for the Cocao interior, which is the first one they sent me, even though I had the other part number. So it showed up in a dark chocolate brown colored leather wrapped shifter. Looks good just wasn’t the darker tan I wanted, which is why I sent it back. The listing was from world parts direct and they were an absolute nightmare to deal with. Their communication was terribly slow, like a message once a week in response to my messages to sort it out.... They sent me the wrong part, took over two weeks to “inspect it” once it got delivered back to them, and then charged me a 20% restock fee because “we can’t resell it”.... I’m like first off it’s not even opened, I shipped it back in the packaging without it being opened and in all the exact same packing material and the same box! Secondly, it’s not my fault they sent the wrong part nor is it my fault they can’t resell. Needless to say I was pretty pissed. I won’t buy from them again. I left a negative eBay review and called it a day... lol
Oh yeah, cocoa. Although the dealer lists it as cocca lol. Yeah the one you got goes for $117, wonder why since it’s just a different color. Here’s the list of them all.

Yessir that eBay seller is on my “never buy from” list. They took my money once and after 3 weeks still hadn’t shipped the part even though it was listed as in stock. They wouldn’t reply to my emails. I had my bank deal with them, I got my money back immediately.

Yup that’s where I got the part number for the maple sugar one and then after the debacle with world parts, I called a Chevy caddy dealer down in the high desert that I’ve done business with before in the last two years and had a great experience with, and they got me the correct colored shift handle. Had it in stock. And for the same price as world parts. I had already planned a junkyard day down that side of the mountain and a couple other shopping stops so it was no big deal to pick it up from the dealer. The gal I always chat with on the phone that runs their parts department is awesome. She had it set aside and all ready to go for me when I got there

How is the shifter angle? Do you think it’s also the same as the NNBS shifter? That’s the only thing I preferred about my NBS one.. the new NNBS shifter seems to be lower than the NBS while in gear. I guess I need to chop it, change the angle a bit, and weld it back together..
BFH.

Big F’n Hammer..? Yeah. This is why I’m asking about the new one’s angle. [emoji16][emoji106]BFH.

Not sure why it seems different. It looks to be the same size and angle but for whatever reason I feel like it doesn’t stick out as much from the column like the NNBS shifter did, and I feel like it doesn’t sit as low when it’s in gear. Low gear yes it sits kinda low but that’s expected. Here’s where it sits when I’m in DRIVE:
Camera angle makes it look lower... lol oops also disregard my dirty shoe in the bottom of the pic....
