    Interest for DieselGeek Short shifters?

    Hey guys,

    I am about to order one for the polo. Then I wanted to ask Jim about group buys. I told him I organised one successfully 3 years ago, and was asking about rates. He said they stopped doing group discounts for a variety of reasons.
    I was hoping and seeing if there was any interest in getting a few in together to save on shipping. It really is a shame that there are no discounts on multiple purchases. But who knows, if we get a solid amount, and have money up front maybe he might make a exception. In any case, the shipping costs are notable even with 2-3 people, and then somewhat stabalise for orders over 5+
    So in other words: Calculation for shipping (which everyone can do), shipping works out to be at cheapest $40USD for one shifter. We can halve the shipping cost with 2 people and it drops to around $15 each with 3 shifters, and then seems to level out at ~$10 shipping per shifter thereafter.
    My hoping is that we might be able to change his mind for this once off time, if we can all get confirmed orders, have money ready and see what he says then. Because, you know. VAG drivers don't f&7k around!

    I have one in my R32, and its great. Plenty of documentation online and reviews of praise for the unit.

    Post what you think and let see what happens!

    Thanks

    Dude, not only can i vouch for the shifters (I have the same one as you in my 4Mo) but I can vouch for you too yay

    Anyone running a gbox where these can fit in needs one. they are the business. Think of how many times you shift per day, and its madness. Get one or get over it

    Howdy, yes that is what I am getting for the missus' polo GTI.
    As long as it has the 5 speed with the silver shifter weight (look) it should be the right one.
