They come with comprehensive instructions and takes around 1-1.5 hours to fit.
They are a bit more fiddly to set-up and unforgiving in use, but the positive feel it gives is SUPERB.
I am about to re-new the shift selector rod an UJ too, I have the parts at work ready, so my shift will be MINT!!

Have to agree with the improvement in shift quality however, I have noticed a lot of vibration is transmitted from the engine into the body as it mounts directly to the body.
Anyone else experienced this?

I drove a RST with one fitted for about 80 miles recently.While it does shorten the throw etc,I found it needed a firm hand (ohh err missus ) to get it to change gear.Felt almost agricultural if I'm honest!!Is this the same for everyone,maybe I needed more miles under my belt to get more used to it??Regards,Micky

vibration - Stuck some rubber matting between the shifter and the underside of the car.
