korsou 9 Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 Hello Gents, I came across this short shifter on ebay. Has anyone tried it? Any recommendations? Does anyone know or recommend a good alternative? Thanks for the comments, Korsou Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,456 Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 Worth speaking to @besters on the forum who can pretty much make your current shifter into a short shifter - there is a thread running on the forum and has had very good feedback. He does this for Golf and Corrado. Pete Link to post Share on other sites
vrsleepa 2 Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 I got one, works well but when your racing you got to get to that cluch a little quicker to shift or else your grinding gears ! Link to post Share on other sites

korsou 9 Posted February 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 Thanks for the responses Gents. I have asked BESTERS to have a comparison. Otherwise I will purchase the Ebay unit. I will probably not use my car for racing, if any for sport driving. Link to post Share on other sites
