Hi All
Any one is using a short shifter for everyday driving? Does it really work when it really maters for quick gear change?
Which model would you recommend and how much is it?

got B&M from clive believe he cant get them now unless silly quantity ordered IIRC about £90 ,beware of cheapo ones you tend to get what you pay for. Took a bit of getting used to a bit stiff 1st thing compared to stock one but as soon as all warmed up excellent,definately reduces throw mostly notice it on the drag strip so far never missed a change when running.Not sure if you may be able to get one from nengun.

Shouldnt be a problem to fit not a long job as usualy get instructions with it,mine was done at garage same time as other bits done.
they are fine for everyday driving, so much nicer for changing gear especially if you are trying to change quick. should be quite easy to fit aswell
