cleaning the old linkage+shifter cover and getting the motor up on stands/ramps.
THE DIFFERENCE IS UNBELIEVABLE it snicks into and out of gear with
incredible precision and feels more like switch than a gear change.
Those unsure about Mk3/earlier boxes worry not/my current box's out of an earlier (XR3 I think) car and although doesn't have an internal gate like your
standard S2's it works perfectly.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED from this happy bunny.
