Ford Ka gear linkage

Problem or technical question?

Ford Ka gear linkage

Postby Project_XR2i_Trackcar on Mon Dec 22, 2008 11:04 am

Is it the same as the Mk3 fiesta ??

reason i ask.

the cheapest B&M short shift i can find for a fiesta is £185 from pumaspeed.

Now, its quite likely that its not a B&M but, this place do one for the Ka for £79

Would it fit. Cheap alternative if it does.

Interseted in more details. I've got a B&M fitted at the moment which I feel is a little harsh for road use.
