I think I've read every Rennshift post on the forum trying to figure out WTAF is going on with my car and this installation.
Here's the quick and dirty version:
It has not been modified. I was thinking about either adding length to the front of the rod in the cabin, or removing it, drilling a new hole for the pin, and extending it forward by the inch or so that is needed to make this work... IF there's enough length to do that. I'm super annoyed by this. Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(sixnotfour @ Jan 1 2025, 09:06 PM)  is that a 914 side model JWSTRSSDSTSN Yea, What's pictured is a stock side shifter but the rod in the tunnel has a tail shifter cup. The stock rod would have a round shaft at the end, not a cup. Did you change it for some reason? |

The tail shifter cup came with the Rennshift as a way to mount to the rod. That's what I was told I needed, anyway. |
