i have one, and day to day driving it won't make a difference. They are easier ...once you get used to them IMO.

Yeah, they'll know when you mention what to send, i ALWAYS call so i get the right parts.

but from rallydesign i was £60-80 for the quickshift, and £20 or polypushes or something, compared to £105 or something for LMF.

If I'm wanting to replace my linkage is this going to go in place, or is it a different part?

Is this it?

Price and the oddness of the webpage makes me doubt it.

Yeah it does, as i had to run spacers once i fitted it. The modded linkage didn't need spacers for some reason...
