I think you are focusing on the wrong part.

The reverse lockout feature is really a secondary benefit from the adjustable side stops.

These adjustable side stops provide a solid and precise adjustment for the 1-2 and 5-6 gates. This is the part that was the main buying feature for me.

Have a good look around and you will see, any shifter with adjustable side stops will need a trigger to activate the reverse lockout pin to retract or you would not be able to put the vehicle into reverse gear.

RTD also make shifters without the adjustable side stops and subsequent reverse lockout feature depending on what you want from your shifter.
