Has anybody installed the symborski shifter kit on their car? I fabbed up my own ghetto kit tonite because I was hating the way that my 91 TSi felt when I shifted. Well I still dont like cable shifters, but it does feel about 200% better. I basically took the old rubber gromets out, put washers underneath of the shifter plate and drilled\cut some 1\8" aluminum that I had laying around so that the bolt fir snugly through it and placed these ghetto washers on top of the shifter plate. I then re-adjusted the shifter cables and bolted it all down tightly. I can now tell what gear I am in and if I'm all the way in gear. Shifting seriously feels ALOT better\confident, if you havnt bought this kit I would reccomend either purchasing it from Mach V or fabbing your own kit as I did. I also installed an EVO VIII knob which looks and feels great. It shortened the throw quite a bit and matches rather nicely.

No problems at all with mine and I've had it set up like this for over a year. I think the 1/2 inch is just the amount of rubber they thought they needed on the gromets to make for a soft shifting unit. You don't need that space.
