- A short shifter install can be done in 5 minutes and costs only about €30. It's a mod well worth doing! This short shifter can be installed on any vehicle with an 020 gearbox: VW Golf MK2 and MK3, Jetta, Corrado and maybe MK1, I'm not sure about the MK1 as there's also a different short shifter available specifically for MK1s and the Scirocco, but that's also for the 020 gearbox so I don't know what's different about it besides the price. I hope this video helps by showing you how the install is done as I couldn't really find any other clear instructions on it.

Thanks for watching, any interaction is appreciated!
Thank you so much!
Thank you for posting .I am just about to do this on my VW.
Well worth it in my opinion! If you really want to do it justice, get a weighted shift rod and do a complete gear shifter linkage rebuild! Makes the shifting feel like a new/modern car
@@1600GL Did it yesterday. You are absolutely right!
Nice dude!
Not seen these before, I've seen the weighted shifters from a mk3, this looks cool though!
Yeah I heard about those too, haven't found one I want to try yet though. If you happen to find one I'd be interested to know where you got it from and what it did for you! I'll admit this short shifter does make the shifting itself feel just a bit more rough but my bushings are almost worn out anyway so I'm gonna replace them soon, I think that will make it a lot better. All that to say that it's probably best to do this mod in combination with a bushing repair if you want to best results. Thanks for your comment!
