I then got the mk2 gaitor trim, removed the coin slot section and mounted this section on top of the other piece. Basicly I trimmed a flat bit of plastic from an old centre console I had and cut the hole where it was needed. The inner workings of the mk4 setup sit farther foward, so I had to make something up that looked good. Now it was time to refit the centre-console and trim.but it won't fit back in standard form. A very worthwhile mod which I wish I had done on the old VR6 setup. Once that was sorted I gave it a bash and was amazed how much more direct the shift feels and how short the throw is. With the shifter mounted up I then setup the linkages. To mount, I drilled two holes in the tunnel for the studs to be bolted up from the inside of the car then ran a bolt down at the rear. To mount the mk4 shifter I removed the mk2 brackets under the tunnel Then I cut off two sections at the rear of the shifter as outlined in the pic below. Here's a comparison of mk3/mk4 cable shifters. In the end I managed to source brand new parts through Ebay and the local Audi dealer. Trying to get hold of a tower on it's own from breakers proved problematic: nobody wanted to split them from the gearboxes. Combined with the 5-speed short throw Audi TT tower, this setup would also feel a million times nicer than the long swing of the mk3 cable changer. I found out thtrough a mate that the mk4 cable shifter is considerably shallower, providing a much needed 40mm clearance. My exhaust system has been a problem, with clearance between the CAT and the bottom of the shifter mech housing being the major issue.
