Must admit wouldn't mind a B&M shifter myself too. May speak to Jabba about it tomorrow.

So do the mk4 golf short shifters work on the fabia

A B&M and Draft 42 selector bushes are definitely on my shopping list I think!!

Alex you got a link to them Daft 42 selector bushes

Update? Anyone gone for the eBay special?

I've blasted around castle Combe and the gear change still felt sharp and precise.

Done over 1,000 miles now and it still feels fantastic

Cool. Think I might try the bushes first. If only someone would sort a group buy out. I'm too lazy.

+1 anyone got a link to the bits you have too buy?

Somewhere on here I guess but not sure which one http://www.42draftdesigns.com/Transmission-Components_c_223.html

Bushes. Approx 4 posts above

What's the other bits you need? Not sure who started the original group buy but maybe he'd be willing to start one up again if someone asked him?

The issue with that GB was that they were coming from abroad and Lloyd had issues with customs etc.

Both the bits needed are available in the UK from Awesome GTI and PSI tuning

Very good they are too, well worth the money doing both sets of shifter bushes. You loose the sloppy magic wand style shift lol.

Can't decide on the B&M as I don't want to change the gear knob ohh errr lol.

May have a feel of yours Charlie in your car, when I next see you

No problems Lee.

Dan forgot to feel my knob at castle Combe too

I just contacted awesome about a group buy on the selector bushes, but there isn't any margin for them to arrange a gb unfortunately

Yes that's what you need.

Awesome pay to be sponsors of the site, so they are free to promote what they sell.

If you contact them they may be able to work out a deal, but I'm sure they wouldn't actively promote huge discounts on an open forum as anyone could try to gain from it

ah I see, wasn't having a dig at them just seen a few sponsors put group buys and discounts up and never seen them do anything that's all :p no offence intended haha

Now I'm confused. Do I want the draft 42 bushes or the ones from psi tuning or both?

Both

@Dark_Hero what happened to your old gearstick (i'm after the plastic insert for cheapy cheap!)

You mean the silver bit with the gear numbers printed on it?

I think it's in the box... I'll have a look to see if I can find it

Yep that's the bit, if you want rid can you send me a pic of its condition please?
