    Can't see why not.

    It's a long ass bolt that goes all the way through so needs a bolt the other end.

    The ones that hold the Subframe above have bolts on the inside cause they're shorter.

    It's annoying if you want it to match but could always get some plastic caps/covers if you wanna hide the nut side
     
  5. No, the cable from the quickshifter should be in the slot on top of the rod:D

    Yes I see what you mean about the slot, the cable runs underneath the rod for some reason!!
     
  8. Just turn the rod or the quickshifter 180 degrees if it bothers you, should look like this with a rubber band instead of the cable tie for neatness.
    IMGP1302.JPG just thinking about it maybe mine would look better with the cable underneath and the rod rotated.:confused:
