I just have to say that this short shift is one of the top three must do upgrades :D

Dave did a GREAT job designing the short shift and the install is super easy thanks to Dave's great engineering. Also, Dave is just a great guy to work with! :smt023

Damn I'm looking forward to this.

What are the other two essential upgrades Doc?
Sorry if that's an amateur question :oops:

IMO:

1st - Upgrade the front brakes...because you then need:
2nd - Mountain chip...

#1 for me this Month is my ex Volvo seat heater :P

BTW the more enterprising of you with wobbly knobs might want to check out the Lotus sales list - they are selling the gearlever assembly for £17 +vat.
Bargain or what?
And if you are brave chop an inch off before you fit it :P

Careful if it's an 850/V70... they had a recall for bursting in to flames...
