The 3 door 1.6 GL tunnel (although still ample for the gearbox) has a narrower back end to it than the RS500 shell and the rear mounting brackets are in a different place, just thought it would mention it as no one did that i recall when i said i was using a GL donor shell and was asking for differences.


Is it just the 500 shell that varies like this, or do normal cossies ones also feature this extra room at the back?

Whats the purpose of the extra space, its FAR wider than the box, is it to allow the potential for fitment of some other transmission as well?
