short throw stubby shifter

[ydeardorff]

I know how to shorten a stock VW shifter, but is there a kit to make a stock shifter a short throw shifter? Or does anyone how to make it shirt throw? I know the hurst style shifter is short throw, but looking for the stock style, shortened, along with a reduced throw.
Anyone have any ideas on this?

Hey thank you for that link. I was looking deeper than I needed to. Ive seen those before in some Aircooled VW stores. I just never paid them much mind before.

jc whitney has a empi kit for $3.99 plus shipping I bought one when I had a free shipping code.

Have not installed because it's plastic not sure if I will the empi pic showed it to be metal.

I cut my stock shifter down to about 3 inches it really shortened the throw as well.
