I've just finished refitting my gearbox and I might be missing the obvious here but I ordered a few shines bits from CMS one of them being a billet shift cable bracket. I didn't realise until I fitted it that it puts the cable fixings about an inch and half back from the original metal bracket, is there a cost effective way to extend the cables by this amount? longer rose joint maybe? Or am I missing something as I'm tired and fed up!?

Cheers
Graham

I don't have a lathe and I would be useless anyway, but I do know a man that does, I'll have words with him later in the month, the back end of the car will be off anyway which will make it easier for him wink
