Curious. I'll watch that with interest as gearstick routing always presents headaches.

if this works, and its a big IF, reverse will be selected by pressing down on the gear knob. This will cantilever the original gear stick upwards.  There is no force at all needed to go side to side across the box, its only really needed to select gears. Im hoping that by having the cantilever rod rotate forwards and backwards with the main gear stick this will help push the original stick back and forth without any attempt at rotation of the original stick, if you see what i mean.
