Much Needed Refinement for the OEM Shifter

The OEM base bushings on most Hondas and Acuras are made from highly compliant rubber. Thanks to leverage, the small amount of compliance the rubber adds equates to a very noticeable "spongy" feeling in the shift knob during shifts. This bushing kit replaces the OEM rubber bushings with rigid 6061-T651 aluminum making for a much more decisive shift, even with a stock shifter. As an added touch, the bushings are coated in a purple Type 2 anodized finished, laser etched, and paired with class 10.9 screws (for the front bushings) and nuts (for the rear bushings).

These are a really cost-effective mod to perform and pair great with our Short Throw Adapter (1923), Centering Spring Upgrade (1918), and Shifter Rocker Upgrade (1932). We recommend installing all at once to avoid the need to remove the center console multiple times.

    Please note that all shipments ship the business day (mon-fri, except on holidays) after they are received. 

    Next-Day Shipping Policy:

    Shipments are sent only after payment has been received. ACUITY Instruments LLC reserves the right to delay shipments temporarily if credit card fraud is suspected. ACUITY Instruments LLC ships all orders on the next business day. This means that if you purchase the "next day" shipping option, next day shipping will go out the next day, meaning a total transit time of 2-days. Similarly, 2-day shipping takes 3 days since the order is filled the next day. If you require faster shipping, we recommend you contact one of our vendors that carries inventory.

    Shipping Options:

    Everyone loves lots of shipping options! We offer USPS, UPS, and FedEx shipping options for domestic (within the United States) shipments and USPS, UPS, FedEX and DHL for international shipments. For your convenience, we offer shipping options with transit times as low as 2 business days. At this time, we do not offer next-day shipping options. 


    Shipping Insurance and Signature Policy:

    Acuity insures all packages it ships. This insurance covers damage to or loss of the product while in transit only. This does not cover theft of the package after delivery. Because of this, a signature is required for delivery of all orders over $100 (before shipping costs). If you will not be available to receive the shipment, many carriers permit the recipient to leave a note on the door instructing them to leave the package. If you choose to do this, please remember that Acuity Instruments LLC cannot insure packages that are stolen.

    Free Shipping Options:

    Occasionally we offer shipping specials where orders over a certain amount are free. If we are offering this, you will see the free shipping option in your cart at checkout. If no options is visible at checkout, then either there is currently no free shipping offer or you are not in a zone that qualifies for free shipping. Most states in the continental USA qualify when a shipping special is being ordered. There is no choice of carrier for free shipping, but typically we will ship your order will likely ship using either USPS or FedEx. If you'd like a faster delivery, you can opt out of the Free Shipping option in favor of a faster, paid, shipping option.

     

    Taxes on International Shipments:

    It is against Acuity's policy to falsify tax documents during the shipment of goods to locations outside of the USA. The tax documents for your shipment will reflect the price you paid for the parts. Please do not contact us requesting us to falsify tax documents so that you do not have to pay taxes on the shipment as we cannot do this.

    Guaranteed Times by Carriers and Related Reimbursements:

    On some shipping services, like USPS Priority Express, the service provider (USPS, UPS, DHL etc) will offer a shipping reimbursement if the order does not arrive on time. ACUITY does not assume responsibility for tracking these matters. If you suspect your service may have a delivery-time guarantee and was delivered late, please contact us with the order # and delivery info. Please note that a full refund is typically not provided by the carrier. ACUITY does not offer full reimbursement of shipping costs, but ACUITY will pass on 100% of any reimbursement for shipping costs from the carrier to the customer.

    Domestic Transit Times:

    For orders shipping within the continental USA, USPS First Class shipments will usually take around 5-7 business days for delivery. USPS Priority usually takes closer to 2-4 business days, and Priority Express usually takes about 2 business days. Your exact transit time will vary based on your location. 

     

    International Transit Times:

    USPS First Class International shipping is very economical, but the transit time can be very slow. Please allow up to 4 weeks for delivery of orders shipped via USPS First Class International. USPS Priority mail is typically faster, normally taking closer to 2 weeks. USPS GXG is faster still, typically taking only about 1 week. Your exact transit times will vary depending on your location, and it is possible that your exact transit time will exceed the values provided here. For best results on international shipments, however, we recommend avoiding USPS options in favor of FedEx, UPS, or DHL shipping methods.

ACUITY will not refund any shipping and handling fees related to a returned purchase. Valid proof of purchase must be provided to receive an RMA number. Any purchases made through one of ACUITY's vendor's are subject to that vendor's return policies. ACUITY cannot accept the return of an item purchased through a vendor without the consent of ACUITY and said vendor.

      Great addition to shift setup!

      Bash Bushings made a decent impact on shifter feel. Install was a bit trickier than I had thought, as the front base bushings can EASILY drop down under the carpet making a hour job into a 3 hour job. Maybe a little adhesive on the top portion would allow for easier install?

      Bushings

      base bushins can't really tell if they really do any different. The stiffer spring definitely helps with the gate separation. The shifter cable bushings help with the shifting as well.

      Small Parts, Huge Effective Change in 10th Gen Accord Shift Feel

      As described by the part description, the sponge-y and sometimes vague feel when shifting into gear on the stock shifter is largely due to the compliant rubber bushings used to secure the shift tower to the chassis. The Acuity shifter base bushings take out the compliance for an overall net-positive change in shift feel. With the base bushings installed, shifting into gear feels more finite regarding the range of motion, and overall there is greater feedback to the driver. A word of advice - it absolutely makes sense to install any other Acuity parts you may be interested in at the same time in order to save the effort of accessing the shifter more than once.

      I installed the Stage 1 shift kit, which includes the base bushings, and dollar for dollar, it is the best value upgrade I've done to my 2020 Accord Sport 2.0T. If you cared enough to buy the car with a 6 Spd manual, you will absolutely appreciate the difference that the Acuity shifter upgrades make in your daily driving experience. The base bushings are small parts, but combined with the other components in the Stage 1 kit, the sum effect of each component working together is much greater than any of them alone. I assure you - it's worth the money, and it's completely reversible if you ever change your mind.

      Nice product

      Take your time and all will go well. I did mine in about 2 hours including removal of the center console. Great product!
