Don't see why it can't be done but I think I would get one from a salvage yard to experiment on.

There is a thread at corvetteforum.com where a guy did it. It's an old thread from 2006 if you can find it. I wish mine was shorter too. I have the Alpine CDA7897 1.5 Din and the shifter gets in the way when it tries to retract when I shut it off.
