Pre Installation Instructions: BEFORE BEGINNING ANY WORK, MAKE SURE THE CAR IS SAFETY LIFTED AND HANDBEAKE IS SET


1. Remove two 10mm nuts with the 10mm deep socket and 12in extension. (Nuts going to be reused)

2. Use a pry-bar or flat screw driver to lower the retainer clip. And finish removing stock bracket. (If installing Barton shifter, is a good time to work on it) 


This is a comparison of the Barton vs. the Stock
