I used a set of Silver DT shifters on a Road Std rebuild. I love how they work. Downside is how easily they corrode. There is plenty of Summer sweat falling on that region and the plating on the parts is not up to the task. I took them apart and scrubbed thoroughly, re-lubed and put back on the bike. Hope they continue to do well.
Your mod in the pics linked below looks great and would avoid any sweat issues. Definitely a keeper.
