campagnolo with shimano

mp252

Hi,
I understand that I cannot mix shimano with campag parts, but I have a shimano rear derailer and and shimano cassette 9 speed with a campag 9 speed mirage shifters, I cannot at the moment afford new shifters. So instead am thinking of buying the Jtek Engineering product Shift Mate. Does anyone have any idea if this will work?

Thanks

It does work... I have done exactly the same. 9 Speed Veloce Ergos, Campagnolo derailleur and Shimano 9 speed cassette and chain, kept together by the J Tek.
