why would you pay so much money for something yoy can make yourself.
Its easy to modify the original part and it will work as good as the one from ebay

Get it mate their great i have one. Loads of the mk2 lads have them. Easy to change over and a massive difference in throw. One of the best mods iv done so far. You won't regret it bud.

it would be if I had some better tools haha to be honest that ebay one isn't a bad price, if you look for a direnza one they are like 300 quid!

Yeah pretty easy. Hardest part was moving my airbox out the way lol. I used a guide on youtube for help.

Excuse the (lack of) quality, this one is very easy to do, and makes a huge difference, one m10 nylock nut and m10 /17mm head bolt, and of course drill, and 10mm bit. 5 minutes work (once airfilter is out the way)

Is it easy to realign the cables afterwards?

Yes it is.

I also have the eBay short shifter, works like a charm. I absolutely love it. I bought his one: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/320883780289

Might have to do this, i have all the m10 nuts bolts etc in the van, just need to get nylock, but could get over this with longer bolt and 2 nuts to act as locking nuts.

How far did everyonedrill from the original mark?
