I used a rotary shifter from a 2021 Escape Hybrid, made a post here around the beginning of page 25 -- was getting errors every day with the old shifter and while I don't have a scanner to check for DTCs, the warning light went away and hasn't returned in the 2k miles since.
I bought that one too, same one as OP's original eBay post.
Wow, that's a fantastic looking print, nice job! Amazing design work too, @mr.Magoo! I just realized that's a two-piece console... what a great solution to the covered bolt problem!Just finished printing @mr.Magoo front shifter box for someone on the forum, and it came out really nice. Like I would have no issues using it as is without painting. thank you @mr.Magoo for sharing!!
I printed myself the first version from @ENDianDigital and I still love it, not going to replace it. I like the shifter in the back.
Here are some pics of the one I just printed.
This is why I went with the Bronco shifter and not with the Escort shifter.Now if a can just find a matching cover for a escort shifter. I have the cover for the screen already. I see covers for the Bronco and Mach E but no escorts. They look the same but who knows?
While it would be super cool if they did an EV version of the MK1 RS Escort, I'm guessing you're referring to the Escape, or have I missed something ?
Escape Escort one of those .Love this design. Silly question: can you use the work surface with it? It’s hard (for me) to tell if the shifter sticks up higher than the surrounding trim.Here's my shifter setup...
I didn't necessarily like the existing designs as they were a bit "chunky" and made an attempt to get it more OEM looking.
BIG thanks to @ENDianDigital, without his design/kick in the butt I probably wouldn't have done this, it started as a few mods and turned into a complete redesign.
Main differences are that the shifter is located at the front (the cable is long enough if you cut/push out the strap holding it to the side wall).
The shifter is tilted 10-15 degrees.
You dont have to cut the tabs.
It accommodates the Escape and E-Transit shifters.
I ended up using the E-Transit shifter, being black, it doesn't stand out as much as a chrome would.
I painted the tub with a graphite metallic and dusted it with flat black to try and match the color/look of the cup holders, followed up with a matte clear.
And, yes, I'll post the drawings, this was basically the prototype and theres a few changes that I'd like to make before posting them.
Yeah I guess I meant to write "Escape".
Yes, you can.
