Still not got round to fitting any of the bits I've got stored in the garage, just added to them with a Mountune Short Shifter
If everything goes to plan I've got some time off work at the start of March so should get the Samcos, Big Brake kit, Front Splitter & Short Shifter fitted then & also plan to trim the seat backs as I've got a Mountune boot mat but doesnt look right with metal seat backs!

Me to mate, it's depressing seeing all the bits sitting there waiting to go on, like I said got some time off in March so hopefully I can get it all done!!
Had some spare time today so thought i'd fit my short shifter & front splitter. Only managed to get the short shifter done but depending on the weather should get the spltter on tomorrow & give the car a clean!
Short shifters easy enough to fit although I did manage to break a plastic clip but luckily enough it hasnt caused a problem. It makes a big improvement on gear changes & feels more comfortable being that bit shorter, think it looks alot better to with the gaiter & gear knob. Think im gonna save up & get the billet short shift arm to go with it.
Took advantage of the good weather today, fitted my front splitter & gave the car a quick wash (needs to be done properly when its a bit warmer). Typical of my luck the the pop rivets I had were to short but I found some nuts & bolts which were a bit to long but they done the job. Think it finishes the front end off nicely.
Great updates
I love the look of the short shifter gaiter & knob from Mountune <3333
I'd have to get the Steeda shifter though, as it's just so much cheaper.
And that splitter looks the nuts, if it goes missing, you know where to look

Where are you getting your prices from? Mountune is £119 and Steeda is £174
Yeah, the billet arm which reduces the throw further to match Steeda's, but to add that to the original shifter makes it basically £75 more. Wouldn't bet on it being £75 a better product tbh.

Cheers mate. If you look at the right time the Mountune was cheap, I got mine when they did their 12 days of Xmas, saved about £40. Plus for me if there's any problems with it Mountune are only a 25minute drive from where I live so easy to take back!! Can't say if it is better than the Steeda one cos I've not used Steeda but I'm happy with what I've got.
