Something ive just found on a site that claims to be the answer
to spending money and "just as effective".
shove a broom up their ar$es i think ! ! read on and laugh.
Do it yourself Quick-Shift
Cheap alternative, that works.
Remove the gearknob/gater. Take one hacksaw, and cut off the top of the gear stick, leaving about 5mm of thread. If you can, run a 12mm die down the G/S to extend the threads. Note that you will only make a shallow cut, as the G/S is 11mm dia, with a 12mm thread "rolled" in. Don't worry if you can't extend the thread.
Use some electrical/ptfe tape to pack out the stick just bellow the treads (stops any gearknob movement) and re-fit gater/****.
Worked for me, Bob R, + a few :-).

Well as you found it on http://www.iwoc.co.uk/iwocmods.html why not say? As a couple of the people who have done this mod are on Scoobynet, I'm sure they would like to comment.
