    I too made up a bracket to hold the OE bracket in the right place (based on the bellhousing bolt fitted), but it was too high up on an F20

    I thought Johnnys was an F20 but maybe not

    Got a Cav internal shifter, rosejointed linkage, nylon bushes and late turret with better internals so can live without the cables for now!

    You can buy a cable shifter for a nova F20 & a lovely machined lever?
    need rather deep pockets though!

    Can't get my iPad to copy the link.
    google CAE shifter then look under Opel Corsa.
    saw one at the retro show last year on a turbo mini with an F20. Lovely piece of kit just my pockets not deep enough.

    Posh kit indeed looks like it has a standard cable shift turret and an aftermarket bracket

    Stunning kits. Look amazing, sound as went they change too.Direct to turret change. Mega bucks tho.

    See Ben (boffer) upclimb vid in the track day thread... He uses one.

    im using the vectra C 1.8 gearstick and cables with standard bracket on my corsa v6...
    i used a late f18 box casing with the holes already in place and had to twist the bracket a little bit, then just fitted the f20 internals like for like

    the cables are a little too long causing the side to side motion of the stick to be a little stiff but doesn't bother me as not that bad
