In my view the throw is still too short with the extension, but I want to use both.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hi all, this morning I fitted a short shift kit and was wondering if anyone had fitted a better gear knob on the ssk? The original one is battered and I must admit that I like the idea of having a bare metal lever as opposed to the saggy leather cover?
Cheers,
Stu..

As per Skoosh, a second vote for the Rennline alloy item, it is indeed cold in the winter but it warms up, looks good, feels right in your hand and has a nice weight to it.

Aye, that's it. It's actually the only one I can use at the moment because my throw is comically short as I've got an SSK on a GT box. I need to extend the throw when I get the car back and test it. In my view the throw is still too short with the extension, but I want to use both. I've got a function first white stick and a standard one to try out.
