FAQ
I'M NEW HERE. LET'S GET STARTED!
I want to buy a Likewise shifter or extension but I don’t know where to start.
The first thing you'll need to confirm is whether our products will fit your vehicle. To do that, you'll need to find out if we make an adapter for the year, make, model and transmission (automatic/manual) of the car you drive. But what the hell is an adapter, you ask? See below!
What is an adapter and do I need one?
Yes - every single Likewise shifter or extension will need one of our adapters to attach to your vehicle. Without an adapter, our products will not fit. We make many different types of adapters that suit a wide variety of vehicles. If you don’t know what adapter you need, start with our Fitment charthere.
What if my vehicle isn't on your Fitment chart?
This just means that we're probably not familiar with your vehicle. This doesn’t mean we can’t help you though - you'll just need to contact us with more detail. When contacting us, please include the year, make, model and transmission (automatic/manual) of your vehicle.
Do your shifters and extensions work with automatics?
If you have a button on your automatic shifter, our adapters will not work. If you don't have a button on your automatic shifter AND the shifter unscrews, we may be able to help! Please visit our Fitmentchart to determine whether we have already identified your car, or get in touch for help.
Will your shifters work with my reverse lockout?
Why are your products ‘show use only’? Are they safe to use daily?

Can I order a product in a specific colour?
Unfortunately not. The colours on our store are the only colours that we currently stock. We often have limited edition releases of specific colours but these are only available until sold out.

If I pay you extra money to make a custom one-off colour or product, can you do it?
No, we do not offer custom versions of our products.

SHIPPING AND HANDLING
How much will shipping cost to my country?
Our online store will calculate shipping prices for you automatically.
Please remember that we are based on a massive desert island situated far from everyone else (Australia), and our products consequently take a long journey to get to most of our customers. We are constantly trying to minimise and reduce shipping costs and always pass these savings onto our customers. Shipping our products overseas also requires packaging that will keep them secure and safe during their journey, which results in some additional cost.
Do you ship worldwide?
Yes! We ship to most countries around the world.
How long does it take for my order to be packed and shipped?
All orders are usually packed and shipped within 1 to 3 business days. You will be automatically sent an email with tracking information once your order has shipped. Any possible delays in this process will be communicated with you.
Will you send me a tracking number?
Yes, we will automatically email you a tracking number when your order ships. If you have not received one, your order probably hasn't shipped yet.
How long does shipping take?
Domestic (within Australia): 2-5 business days
International: 5-7 business days
Delivery times are between metropolitan areas of major cities, excludes time in customs if applicable, and may be subject to delay due to causes outside of your postal service's control.
My tracking hasn’t updated in a while. Has my package been lost?
Probably not. If it looks like your package hasn't moved in a while, it most likely means that your package is simply working its way through the postage system, or the plane that was carrying it has crashed into the ocean (just kidding - we just like being dramatic). If you are still concerned, please contact the shipping provider first. We can only see the same tracking information that you can, so unfortunately we cannot provide more detail.
ORDERS
Do you have a website?
Yes. You’re on it right now actually.
Can I change my order?
Maybe. Please make sure that you email us ASAP so that we can correct your order before it is shipped.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept PayPal, MasterCard, Visa, American Express, AfterPay, ClearPay, Sezzle, Apple Pay, and Android Pay.
Why is my card being declined?
This is usually due to a restriction set by your bank, especially if you are purchasing from outside of Australia. Usually this is easily resolved by contacting your bank. Unfortunately we do not have any control over this.
SPONSORSHIPS
Can you sponsor me?
Unfortunately the answer to this question is almost always ‘no’. As much as we would love to sponsor everyone that asks, we are simply unable to.
How about a partial sponsorship? Or a discount?
No. We are very nice people, but we cannot give you a discount simply because you asked nicely.
OVERSEAS RETAILERS
Do you have any overseas retailers?
We are currently the only supplier and retailer of Likewise products.
Can I be an overseas retailer?
At this stage, unfortunately not.
