    By the looks of it, it should work fine. As you will be cutting and welding it to line up pretty much anything will work..

    The short answer is no.
    I guess its feasable, you would need to get the linkage bar set so low that it goes under the upper tunnel frame that the centre consol is bolted to.

    I'm struggling to find a shifter that'll fit straight in, without using part of the Nova rod. Most other Vauxhalls seem to have a "slide in to the linkage" end of the shifter rod rather than the "slide over" that the Nova needs?!

    Yup/\ Hence why ive had to put two pieces and 2 welds in mine

    You need to find the one Olly H uses. Looks like it may not have been a cally one, mk2 astra maybe??

    Today I checked various years of Corsa Bs, mk3 Astras, Cavaliers, Vectras and a Calibra and they all looked wrong at the linkage end.
