Hi All,
Hoping someone can give me some help installing a TWM short-shifter. I'm from the UK and the UK Gen6's stock shifter is slightly different from the US model. Basically (this should hopefully make sense!) the small plastic cups that attach to the bottom and side of the shift arm are slightly smaller in the US than in the UK - basically, because the TWM shifter is designed for the US market I can't fit it without some US spec plastic cups!  TWM have tried Toyota but with no luck so I decided to try you guys! Hopefully someone who has installed a TRD shifter will have the old one in the garage and wouldn't mind selling me some spares!  Thanx! |

Yup, that's the problem!
Hmmm, Dremel might work - the cups have little ball bearings that grip the metal balls so dremeling that effect may be a bit tricky. I'm trying to source some parts through a helpful UK Toyota dealer - I'll post when something happens. Any TRD shifter owners out there who want to make some quick cash from parts on their garage shelf? |
