Carpet support binned
Roughly mark out the hole position and get cutting, with holesaw in my case.

Then on with the jigsaw, yes i cut the hole bigger than is needed tbh, but i dont want to find its too tight when i come to fitting the shifter....

Need get some more cutting discs tomorrow so i can cut the side bits of the panel flush with the transmission tunnel. The shifter rod hole will be getting covered too, so didnt need be mega neat.

Remove nova shifter and compare to the now cut-down astra one, as you can see with the kink removed, the astra shifter rod is too short!!!!
Which means im going have to weld the astra end piece back on, and then weld the end of the nova one onto that :roll: Lesson of the day is not use a astra shifter tbh, cally one seems to be more suitable.

Looking good.
Whilst undoing the nova linkage clamp bolt i noticed the linkage seemed a bit damp/dirty, turns out it looked like cv grease, uh oh :roll:
Yep, the bastid boot has split in half, leaving the cv joint just bare :eek:
Fook knows how long its been like that for, hoping the joint isnt knackered and i can get away with new grease and boot. Yet another job to do! :cry:

Maybe lucky to spot it though tbh, dont want the joint letting go at 100mph.... :wtf:
More tomorrow hopefully.
