Abstract
A shifter assembly configurable for multiple automatic vehicle transmissions comprises a housing, a base mounted within the housing, a shift handle pivoted to the base, and first and second gate plates selectively mountable to the base in differing configurations cooperatively forming differing shift gates for differing gear shift patterns adapted to differing automatic vehicle transmissions for reverse or forward shift patterns. The base, handle, and gate plates are selectively mountable as a unit within the housing in differing orientations relative to a cable-receiving opening in the housing to facilitate installation within a vehicle with the cable extending from the housing in either a forward or a rearward direction.
