Default Short shifters

I am curious, has Antonella had any issues with the short shifter from Ultrex? I purchase one for my MY04 WRX based on their online guide but have found that when I tried to fit it it isn't allowing me to select first gear, it's the one to suit 97-07. I get the feeling it's incorrect ad the original one is bent just after the pivot. Any advise would be great.
