Been reading up and people say you need a spacer and a different linkage and other people say you don't?

Don't want to but something I don't need

I don't see see how you'd get away without using a spacer on the rear mount to be honest.

On mine at least the gap was perfectly filled by 10mm of spacers, so ergo the gear linkage would need to be extended by 10mm.

M Tech make one that is fantastic, it's quick shift as well. £100 with nylon bushes off of LMF. Pics in my project thread.

Nova linkages are totally different, the ball sockets are different sizes. On the Corsa the selector rod is knurled and the linkage has the clamp fitting but it's the other way around on a Nova.

You don't have to buy one, just have a simple bit added in as below;


Ideally do something to extend the bar across the top too but it isn't essential, without it you just get a short lateral movement on the gearstick.
