    Can someone with a manual VR6 do me a favour?

    I'm in the process of configuring a shifter system in my Mk1 and have run into some differences between the linkage and bracket on my hybrid 02A/J gearbox.

    Here's a pic I have of the 'standard' 02A cable bracket - the cables are mounted side-by-side:



    I'm hoping someone can confirm that this exactly what their bracket looks like (or even better post a pic of it). Can you also get the part number off the bracket as I need to order one!

    Many e-Beers to anyone who helps :-p

    Cheers

    I've just discovered that most late 02As actually use the 02J linkage tower. I knew my CDA 'box had 02J diff flanges as standard, and that the cables had different ends, but it turns out the mechanism is actually 100% 02J, rather than about 50%, which is what I'd thought from having a quick look at 02Js previously. I've since had to use an AGC-code cable bracket from a Passat and modify the 02J linkage to alter the leverage ratio back to original 02A specs. The CDA is basically an 02J in an 02A casing - good old VW!
