View Full Version : M-tech f23 short shifter
Hi guys
Bought one of these the other day but no instructions, wondering if anyone has fitted one and can give me some advice or if anyone has any instructions kicking around they could email me?
Cheers :biggrin:

Go the the above thread halfway down there is fitting instructions
Is it the one that goes on the gearbox or in the car?
Sorry just realised the M-tech one isn't the gear shift one

This is how to fit one to a VX220: http://www.verboom.net/projects/speedster/20041002/index.html
Its just the getting to it which is different.
When I did mine I removed the battery, battery tray and dropped the engine and gearbox off its mounts onto a jack and lowered it down to get more access.

It's not as hard as it looks the worse bit is knocking the pin out of the old one. just use lots of wd40 and a big hammer ;)
