How would one go about modding ones own linkage?

Seriously though, i've never seen a short shifter laid out beside a standard linkage to actuall see the differences in them.

search by performance car parts go down to quickshifts and click, then click on b&m quickshiters (in yellow) then search by car then click on quickshift kits then it gives u a quickshift for a mk5 and a esc cos its a bit long winded but if just search by car at the start u end up with no shifters listed

had a b&m one in my old erst gonna get me one for my 306 pug
