its a 10min job very easy i like my short shifter but mines a gfb so abit different to the one your looking at but for the money you might as well.

remember to take the c clip out from the base first as alot forget about this and try to rip it out but with the c clip removed the ball joint and white surround just slip out

hope that helps

you wont need to go under the car as its a 5 speed and everything should fit i.e **** and gaiter only thing that may need changing well modding is the metal plate surround that is fixed at the base of the gear lever but that depends on the throw you'l see if it does when short shifter is fitted and it takes only 5 mins to alter but i dowt it would need doing
