Had a scat shifter in our old baja and i will get one for the bus when funds allow. I prefer the t bar for reverse compared to the trigger on empi's.

Definitely get a SCAT shifter, money well spent. It honestly makes changing gear feel like a modern car, much quicker and smoother, I was absolutely stunned by the difference.

a nice pic of it in someone's bus would b ace!
And is it easy to install?

 

[BigOrangeMonkey]

Easy to install, stick your bus in 2nd gear, unbold and remove old gear stick, bolt in scat shifter, job done.

Will get you a pic now.

Here you go, not brilliant pics but I had to rush out and do them as I am meant to be working

Lovely to use to, nice and comfy.

£85 from VW Speedshop. :wink:

Are they easy to fit :?: , i have a stock stick at the mo and would like to make changing easier. If you get it wrong i can hit reverse instead of second :x and its usually with people looking at you......ouch
