I was in the same situation and decided that the current line of shimano bar end shifters are too posh for my tastes so i am using the thumbies. Also i am not connvinced that i will like the position of the bar end shifters.
I'm with thumbies right now as well, but honestly I don't like their position. Plus bar ends look so much cleaner!

Go to Retrobike.co.uk & search for Large selection of vintage bike components He has some for £10 a pair.
Good luck with it, Regards, Julian
Thank you Julian, couldn't find the thread yet but will keep looking!
