short shifter

The Volvo 480 looks good as is, but if you have the desire to give it a more personal look you can find out what others did to their 480 and be inspired.

Hi
has anyone fit a short shifter gear stick on their 480, I'd like to reduce the throw of the stick shift but can't find any kits made for the 480.
Any ideas anyone?
cheers

Do you have picture from it?

Do you also have to change the thing for the reverse?
