daves16v 1 Posted January 21, 2014 I recently had the privilege of sorting some mods & upgrades with Dave's excellent bespoke parts, as well as paying him for his fitting care & expertise. The parts were : 1] short shifter == just great & decisive now :dance: 2] handbrake tunnel bracket == no more sqeaks or rattling :clap: 3] door handle repair kit == now solid 'actions' again, and great preventative maintenance The high quality of his design & fabrication of each of these bespoke updgrade solutions is already well documented by other such highly satisfied Members, and I just want to respectfully add my own appreciative endorsement to those... ...my own privilege enbraced all aspects of the arrangement, from my initial enquiry through to his fitting expertise & care : :salute: Dave is a very cheery & affable 'Top Man' in terms of his communications, his encyclopedic knowlegde of our beloved steeds and his 'kid gloves' care of one's car with his fitting The totality of the whole experience culminated in a very enjoyable trip across Nottingham, and an then an ongoing, perpetual :cheers: :dance: :cheers: feeling of 'proper jobs' well done every time I'm near the car. So, it's a big "Thank You" from me, Dave, and I hope my very positive experience can help other would-be Members who are contemplating any/all of these upgrades to decide to go ahead with any/all of these 'proper job' enhancements. Wishing you a happy & spirited 2014, and "Good Luck" with your work your own steed, Robert Robert, I don't know how I managed to miss this, only just found it. Your feedback is very much appreciated and it was a pleasure meeting and chatting to you. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daves16v 1 Posted January 21, 2014 How easy is it to for one of these from under the car to avoid cutting the floor? Michael, Sorry for the very late reply. You have to drop the exhaust off to get to the shifter box then remove the box and cables in one. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daves16v 1 Posted January 26, 2014 Another reminder to those who have fitted theirs to send your old one back please. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
easypops 8 Posted January 27, 2014 Daft question time..... Would the shifter from a mk3 vr6 be any good? ie, would it be a straight fit back into my Corrado? Only asking as I have an old mk3 vr that is heading for scrap soon :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daves16v 1 Posted January 27, 2014 Daft question time..... Would the shifter from a mk3 vr6 be any good? ie, would it be a straight fit back into my Corrado? Only asking as I have an old mk3 vr that is heading for scrap soon :) Not a daft question, infact I'm glad you asked it. There are small differences between the Golf and Corrado shifters which doesn't make them interchangeable I'm afraid. I know this because I've started supplying Golf Mk3 short shifters and have spent time comparing the two. I'll take the Golf VR shifter off you though, PM me price and payment details please. Thanks.

daves16v 1 Posted March 25, 2014 Hi Dave do I have any shifters left Iain Iain, Not at the moment but I think what I'll do is ask for a £10 deposit to secure the next one, that way I won't miss anyone out. Let me know if this is acceptable? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
