  2. With help from a buddy we figured out a way to install the shifter without having to buy a $300 trans tunnel! Now to remove the column shift lever later..

    What transmission are you running? Prior to the Lokar shifter how was the column shifter hooked up?
     
  15. It's a c4 and it just had some hard linkage, I would guess from whatever the column came out of which I haven't figured that out yet.
