talked to someone at EIP Tuning he in MD he said that VW's were pretty good
at going into the correct gears to begin with and that the 'lateral'
thingamajig wasn't necessary.  Anyone installed an ABD short shifter, a
Neuspeed shifter?  Are you happy w/ it?  I am leaning towards the ABD one
b/c it is about $100 cheaper.

	I have the ABD Short Shifter and the ABD Shift weight.  I absolutely love
it.  Get the shift weight, it changes the whole feel of the shifter (for
the (much) better) and gets rid of a lot of notchiness.
	I know I'm going to catch hell for this post, because everyone's going to
scream "DON'T BUY IT, MAKE IT YOURSELF!"... but if you don't wanna make it
yourself (or can't or whatever), buy the ABD.
