Does anybody have the link to the short shift levers that were on Ebay a while back? I cant find it.
Im not taking complete short shifter assemblies, rather just the shortened lever that fits into the existing T5z setup.

Cut your current one. That's all the ebay ones are.

Thanks Rog, I might take JC up on his offer. I have a mate here who may also be able to do it and he owes me about 400 favours.

for what its worth, I got a whole short shift assembly from ebay in the states for jus tunder $75 landed to my front door. Allow an hour and a few beers to put it in, then you have a short throw, and shortened lever. Plus you just wrap the stock one up in a cloth, and put it away in case you want to go back to standard at a later date. No welding, no cutting etc....
just a suggestion |

I got this exact one off this bloke. Shipping time took about 8-10 days from memory. Fitted it up about 4-5 months ago, and its working perfectly. Im quite happy with it anyways. |
