I'm guessing though that Vauxhall use the same gear lever as another model. Check the part no's with Vauxhall and you might find that something like an Astra or Vectra shifter will fit.

Even with the push down for reverse gear? About how much do you think would it cost to have a one off made/adjusted fitted? :cheesy:

A AutoCustomEng Guest 20 October 2008 #7 I couldn't quote but not over £200 and that is for a full custom one, the push down reverse is not a problem
