The W58 and R154 shifters are the same... at least for the MKIII.

That's more of a "short height and less leverage shifter" than a "short throw shifter". For a shorter throw and the same or better leverage you need to extend the lower lever by raising the fulcrum proportionately to the amount the upper lever is shortened (or more).

Personally, I hate the "SOGI short shifter mod", especially on a R154... bleh.
