Again... it's pretty simple. The shifter is directly mounted to the transmission, which is directly mounted to the engine, both of which vibrate.

This is totally normal, you have absolutely nothing to worry about. You will eventually get used to it.

There is nothing that will minimize it. All aftermarket shifters are solid and are designed to reduce the factory "slop." As a result they will vibrate more. The factory shifter has some hard rubber components designed to dampen vibrations from the drive train.
