Mate's goosed gearbox

[James sprinter 0]

A friend of mine has a Mk 2 Golf GTi 1.8 16v with a shagged gearbox. He's done some ringing around the scrappers but the best they can offer is gearbox from a Corrado 1.8 16v.

 

Anyone know if its possible to use the corrado box in the golf without modification?

 

This mate of mine will be coming over from the dark-side soon to Corrado ownership :lol:

 

Cheers in advance

The Corrado gearbox is cable change whereas the Golfs are not I think. Anyone want to back me up on this or am i wrong?

Can't you just convert the golf to cable change? It's quite easy and only requires a few mods.
