extend the linkage by 15mm off the corsa, but get a metal rod off astra nova etc and extend it by approx 50mm so it is 15mm bigger than the plastic one

i always wondered... if you use the m-tech short shift thing do you use the corsa plastic piece or the astra metal piece.... and does it need to be lenghtened?

Stop being a pikey and just buy the MTech shortshift. It includes the metal linkage bar for the F20 / Corsa conversion so it's worth the £60-70 odd.



this should answer you question anyways...



pictures are so much easyer to understand than words
