Dazzi Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Nice work. Finally got round to throwing mine together today. I disabled the shift lock also. Need to have a play around with the gear gaiter to fit better. Not a bad mod, cost me around £15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattdavies Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 What Gaitors have people used for this ? Supra manual gaiter ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoot Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Any write up on this? Might give it a shot when i'm back from Afghan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David P Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 You could fit a dummy clutch pedal and wire it to one of those electric dump valve thingies. I find the O.E. shifter ergonomically tactile, especially in MANU mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mk4Gaz Posted November 30, 2015 Author Share Posted November 30, 2015 I never did mate, no. Mine is currently apart, and I'm planning to do some work on it this week/weekend. I'll take some pics of what I done, and put them up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mamos95 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Can anyone give me some advice please on how to disable the shift lock? I’m doing the same thing but with a manual gear surround to make it that little bit more convincing [emoji23] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PJJ Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Why would you disable shift lock??? Meaning you can unexpectedly shift into reverse or park whilst moving at speed, crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did it at first, but soon changed it back. It's easy to feel the shift lock mechanism through the gear gaiter.

Mamos95 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 What about turning the shifter into a push down to realise? [emoji848] heard good thoughts about that. It’s more about getting into reverse quicker. Thanks for the tip though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drilled a small hole in the bolt head, and tapped the thread for the push rod on the auto shifter. Then screwed the bolt onto the shift rod (upside down), then screwed the gear knob to the bolt.

Mk4Gaz Posted September 8, 2019 Author Share Posted September 8, 2019 Ok, so here's a couple of pictures of what I did. The bolt is spaced high enough to enable the shift knob to push down..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
