What is the procedure for the shortened ATX shifter mod? I did a search but didn't pull anything up...am I searching for the wrong topic? I wouldn't mind mine being a little shorter...I've got a friend with a Jetta - like his a lot...

So you want something like a Jet Liner Throttle level!

I agree it's way to tall. That is the first thing I noticed when I test drove the car. It's ugly as hell. It must have come out of Ford's school bus parts bin.

Hey Remy Rising I like your sig. But why Diahatsu? Daewoo is better with its Italian styling and 106 ft/lbs torque.  I see we have the same ride. Need info just send me a PM.

Well there is a thread on shortening it but the problem is that you would have to cut the physical shifter itself, which is not reversible. The stock ATX knob is ugly, but surprisingly comfortable.
