Hi Rod,

great work so far. The shifter is on the way to you. Looks much better in the meantime than the picture you showed here (which is an old one). You´ll have it in a few days.

Good Luck

Martin

Hi Rod,

have you come forward with your project. Would be interested if the shifter is already installed. Can you please give an update.

Looking forward to it.

Thanks

Martin
