That's the wrong way of doing it. The correct way is to change the fulcrum point, leaving the knob in the standard location.
As quality aftermarket unit should leave the shifter knob location as per OEM. There's not much point in a short shifter if you have to reach further to get to it.
In fact, the one I have on my Fiat (name escapes me), had the option of extending the shifter rod to bring it closer to the steering wheel.
