Re: Cutting my shifter (REDDUB)

I think that the threads on my 1994 Jetta are 12mm, 1.5 but I don't know about other years. In any case if you are cutting it then you need to know what the threads are on the new knob (if any at all) and rethread the shifter to match up. Or are you reusing the stock knob and boot?

I have a VW Motorsport knob and boot, and I would like to keep it.

Re: Cutting my shifter (j-dub)

Yes j-dub is correct. I have the tap/die set at home and I did it last night 12mmx1.5 You can get the whole kit standard/metric or just get the size you need. I got mine a Sears for less than $15.00.....now go get it and do it to it!!!!!!
