HELP!!!! Ebay short shifter
Posted: Thu Jan 20, 2011 8:02 pm
I had a lower shift boot to replace on my car so I thought I'd be smart and buy a short shifter while I was at it. Didn't seem like a bad idea at the time but I'm having a nightmare fitting it. I'm still trying now and it's a pain in the @ss....
This is this shifter I bought http://cgi.ebay.com.au/90-91-92-97-MAZD ... 519wt_1139
It looks identical to that, I double checked and I have all the parts on there as well as my brand new lower shift boot to install. I can't see any conceivable way to put this in though.
Can someone link me to a tutorial? At the moment I can't drive my car at all... My original stick won't undscrew into two pieces so I cannot reuse it and put the new boot on...
I've looked all over and I can't see any tutorials. The best I could find was a thread on miata net talking about a fuji shifter which looks nearly identical to mine but the thread doesn't go anywhere. http://forum.miata.net/vb/showthread.php?p=3126938
Help asap would be fantastic as I still need the car to get to work and in it's current state I'm stuck in limbo
