T700 has the shift on the passenger side so looks like a cable will be the easiest method otherwise it will be a mechanical cross over linkage under the gear box which is heaps more work to make and calibrate ......FC427......

Didn't think it would stay stock for long! We've used an Ididit cable set up and made custom mounting brackets. We bought ours from Summit for US$80 - but - we usually buy a few things at once to make the freight costs worthwhile. Kathi
