I was wondering how hard it is for an "intermediate" mechanic to install a short shifter by OBX. I just bought it on ebay and it comes with the complete kit. Maybe I should of looked at installs first but I wouldn't mind personal info also thanks.

It's not hard at all. Except for one part where you have to line up the two halves and screw in some bolts. That was a pain in the ***, took about an hr prob. Thank god for beer. Nothing like working on the car and drinking beer :)

Just make sure you grease up the bottom ball of the shifter, and use some lock-tite on the 4 bolts mentioned above.
