[Frallan]

I am very intereseting in who sold you those pieces.
If I got it right it is 901 conversion for T1?
Nice quality and finish on all parts.

Maybe tell me price too? I will not be too shocked but I guess not cheap?

Update,

Started on the Shifter. So far so good.

Removed the old shifter, and made space for the updated Bug@5Speed part.

Pulled the old shifter rod, tricky but quite easy.

Really like the feel, and look

I hopefully will remove the body from the pan soon to do the tranny install. Ran into a snag with the rear spring plates (making way for the 944 Alum) but that will be another post.

Enjoy the pics. Hopefully more to come

is is nessary to remove the body to do this install?

Bow,

Taking the body off is not nessary. It will make the job easier, though.

One thing you will need to do is lift the rear enough to have access to the frame horns. So a good set of jack stands is necessary.

PM your email address and I can send you an article that will provide you a little more information on the process.
