Does anyone know if this would fit an 818?

I bought this for a VW set up and never used it. I didn't want to list it in the classifieds if it wouldn't work for an 818.

short answer, yes, many of us are using a bell crank mechanism...

I know who makes that setup. It was designed to work with the 91-95 MR2 shifter. The mechanism will work, but it might need new cables. I think people are using 7' cables on the 818 but 6' cables on the 914.

yup, 7 footers here. You could use 6 foot if you extend the ends to get exact lengths needed. My 7's need to curve a bit

There from Ian. I was going to use in a Vanagon but the x member is in the way.

I never had cables made.

I'll list in the classifieds.

Thanks

I can't post in the classifieds, must need a certain number of post first?
