Anyone know of an installer looking to purchase the MGW shifter but think its best to have it installed by someone who has done it before. Looking for san francisco or around this area.

Are you looking for someone to have a wrench day, or a motorsports shop to take your car to?

hansenp · 10-04-2010, 09:26 AM

Motor shop or you idea either way I am sure between all of us we could knock it out.

How soon you looking to get it done? It might be a couple of weeks until I would have time/garage space to do it.

It is a pretty easy install, only 2 hours or so. I needed help one time, when actually bolting the shifter into place. It was nice to have the 2nd set of hands to hold it in place while I put the bolts in. Otherwise, its a one man job.

I owe Jeanius some garage time for his Xa adjusters, and DDavis for his shifter (I think its done already!), but its time for a garage day pretty soon, for sure!
I'm down in San Jose, by 280/880.

You;ll love that shifter, was the first thing I did to my car!

Its gonna be approx 4 week due to surgery but I would love the help! Very cool if we could get together

I LOVE my MGW, also the first thing I did to my car, it was fairly easy, I was able to do it alone in about 2 hours also, George has step by step videos of the install that I couldnt of done it without, the hardest part is getting those stupid damn retainer clips out for the arms... those who did it know what Im talking about...

Hey Jason you dont owe me nada! but if you wanted to help a brotha out then its all good!

On a side note, Did you ever send that product back to the company with the labels they provided? I still havent gotten around to it LOL... slacker....
