    Default Are there any a/mkt heel/toe shifters for '08 GS?

    Looking for heel/toe shifter for my 2008 GS. I've just installed Rivco floorboards and they've discontinued theirs. Anyone with used or a knowledge of aftermarket would be very interested. Thanks!

    Hopefully you will get "lucky" with your request here.

    The 998's have been discontinued for a few years now, so aftermarket parts are slim to none. I had an 08 sm5, but did not have a heel/toe shifter on that one.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    I put on the RIVCO floorboards a few years ago and couldn't find any then. I have become very proficient in using my heel for the brakes. It's a lot easier to put pressure on the pedal with your heel.
    The shifter is a bit more difficult, but the very short "peg" that comes with the floorboards replaces the original peg and works fairly well. It folds up out of the way after you run through the gears
