In some cases the bottom pin barely came out and then would be a nightmare trying to get back in, the top pin doesn't seem to have this issue but its harder to get to.

My bottom pin wouldnt budge so i decided to pull the top out. I carelessly dropped it over the other side. Is there a way to get it out?

If you mean that it fell on the other side of the plastic kick panel, then just pull up gently on the sill plate to remove it, then remove the plastic nut that is holding the rear of the kick panel, then just pull the kick panel off.

OK so I have about 10 left, a bunch of people backed out. PM me if you wanted a spring but missed out.

Received today, 5 minutes later - installed! Haven't had a chance for a test drive yet but just sitting in the garage I liked the feeling.

Thanks Nick!

Happy with mine, i was one of the people whose bolt fell on the other side of the plastic. Can shift so much smoother now, can actually feel when it engages, my only problem is the slack at the top, i know ill get over it but is there anyway to fix it?

kayess · 07-27-2011, 10:56 AM

I was thinking the same thing, any fix for the slack? Perhaps change the helper spring?

I'm not sure but I think I'm gonna try to cut the old spring into 1/8 and press it in which will add more tension and hopefully fix that gap issue I duno

Oh yeah recieved my spring today.
