This was a great product. However I found it a bit difficult to fit as the pin you have to insert is difficult to insert as its very fiddly but once fitted selecting gear was much smoother. May I also add I'm not a mechanic and have not a clue what I'm doing really so the videos on the Web site were really helpful. There probably is a easy way to put the clips on but this took me hours of trying but got there in the end.

This did not remove the slack as promised but did make a slight difference. The rods are made very well and easy to install but a little overpriced in my opinion. Although others may have different results, it didn't work as I had hoped.

The rods come ready set up, you don't have to alter the rod length or the angle of the heads so they fit on straight out of the box. The video instructions link is really useful but you still have to 'engage brain' before fitting this kit - some of the linkages are easier to access from the top of the car. I found it useful to mark the rods to show where the locking pins slide in, and a pair of water-pump pliers made 'squeezing' the rod ends on easier. All in all, a really well-made piece of kit.

Just wanted to say these are great quality parts, tightened up the shift on my AX nicely and fit superbly. Also the little boots to keep out grit and grime are a great touch. Spot of grease inside the joint and stick them on and enjoy smooth shifting.

Great quality. Do not buy the cheaper ones listed the pins and ballends are terrible quality. Could do with a spare locking pin for each size provided tho as I lost one while fitting

The gear linkages were much better quality than the standard ones. I liked the nifty little clippy split pins. Easy to fit and gear change much improved. X8R video very helpful too

Fitted a full rod kit a few months ago. Pug 106 1.5 D. Really tightened up the gear change. Very slight adjustment to rod end angle on one unit. Clips can be a bit fiddly...mirror and engage brain. You need to work out the order of rod end fitting as you may have to go back a step in the fitting order, due to difficulty in getting the spring clip in. Everything working fine. Recommended.

The gear linkage rods are light weight and very good quality and don't pop off as they do with the cheaper ones.

Recently brought gear linkages, a lot more robust than standard, very happy and extremely easy fitting

Excellent replacement for the standard worn rods. A little tricky to fit, especially the little pins that holds the rods safely in place, but worth the effort for better gear selection and the knowledge the rods won't come off accidentally
