Anyone want to give me the cliffnotes on a short shifter install? Have read the tech articles...
briefly....more like browsed through them. I have had a UUC SS in a box(used, no instructions) in my garage for like 6 months. I'm tired of it just sitting around......so I started the install....and quickly realized it was going to require a lot more effort than I wanted to put forth. Is it as difficult as I am thinking...like needing special tools and ****? The tech articles are decent, just don't know if its worth 2+ hours of aggravation to put it in.

Here's my $0.02
- A magnetic or claw pick-up tool is invaluable during this job.
- Find someone with small/thin fingers who can help you.
- If you have the post-facelift center console, it cuts 15 minutes - 1 hour out of the process; you have to remove the center console to get at the shifter assembly on the earlier A4s. This also means removing the radio. If your car is 99.5+ (not just upgraded lights/fogs)
