.I wanted to go shorter, just afraid to take too much off. It looks much better. Not as anoyingly tall as the old hight. Once I fab up the plastic around it, I'll decide if it needs to go shorter. Can anyone tell me how tall they'er M5/6 shifter hight is? Might help me down the road

This is the easiest thing to do. The hardest thing, if you still have your factory shifter still on there, is removing the stock shifter.
There is a little staple in the back. You have to pull it out to remove the shifter. I pretty much destroyed my shifter **** getting that damn pin out. Luckily I was replacing it, so I didn't care what happened to the factory one.
Once you do that just mark and cut it with a dremmel. And try not to cut the white plastic piece in the middle off while doing it
. Then measure and remove the right amount of the white plastic to remove.Now if your putting the old **** back on, your going to have to cut a slit in the back of the metal to put the pin back in. That's it!
One word of advice, measure twice, cut once
. You only have one shifter.Rob

I knew that part...i had an aftermarket shifter **** on it till it kept slipping...cheap *** one, but i got the stocker back on now...but for the Scale...1 being easiest 5 being hardest...by the sounds of what you said it sounds to me like it would be a 2 if anything bc of the measurements...
