Short Shifter
Since i got the car, i was amazed by how long the gear throw is, even my dad's wagon got shorter throw.
So, i am looking for a short shifter, although, which one is the problem:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Peuge...352739689.html
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/EPMAN...402491883.html
I spend no more than 35€, if you can suggest somewhere else i can find a short shifter + shipment for less than 35€, please do.
Anyone has experience with either Epman or CSK performance?

none of the above. Personally I'm not a fan of this design. Get an internal quickshift and save cutting up your gearlever.

I have the same quickshift from the link you have posted and I would never go back to the standard one,I have upgraded linkages too and the gear shift as notably improved,it still requires some attention when changing gear so don't trow gear full force just because it's a quickshift.
These from the link you have posted do look like the same but if I were you I wouldn't buy from there,instead refer to Kam Racing,you can be assured they are the best quality possible this way.

You can buy cheap, but when/if the bearing fails you will probably have to buy a whole new unit from China. You have a warranty from a UK company..
Personally I dont like to lower my gearlever to get a shorter gear throw.

The site is not working properly(missing CSS), i can barely search for what i want, tried with 3 different browsers, no photos either...
Veiron, which linkages did you exactly changed?
Did you do it yourself?(if you did, rate how hard would it be for a guy with some mechanical knowledge but very low experience)

I have the Constella ones:
I did not do it by myself but they are very easy to change,you have some limited access but that's it,they literally just pop in and out,on these above you should have a little safety pin that locks them in place safely if you need further help there is a nice guide on here you can follow.

You need to whitelist our website in your firewall.

99% of our customers can get on our site. We have a couple who get this issue and its not the fault of our site so not something I can fix. We've asked our server supplier as well and they say they cannot do anything and its a local computer issue. Something your end is blocking the CSS files. If you try on your mobile you will probably find it works as its running through a different network. If multiple browsers dont work then next in line is your firewall, your proxy (if you run one) then your router firewall, then your ISP (if they filter content using a proxy technology).
Might be worth dropping us an email and we can quote you there. We can take payments through paypal so we can bypass the site if need be..

Yes, it goes on the "gear controller".
on the end of the longest gear linkage.
