I also heard the BB one is meant to be better. However it is slightly taller (which may be a plus for some people with short arms). I have the B&M shifter, it's fine for me. Reverse is a little awkward though, but I do spend most time going forward. Lol. :D

i,m hoping as they no longer make the clio shifter. so there checking with b+m usa to see if they have another in stock. if not then i,m likely to get a refund. still got the renault one in at the moment.

I read somewhere that these things knacker the synchro's on the gearbox....

Is that true?

no not in my experiance. all it does is reduced the amount of throw on the gear lever. why this should have any effect on the synchros i,ve no idea. mines been fine for two years just suddenly seized up and stopped working

old post i know but being dealing with eibach the uk importer and i just wanted to say what fantastic service.

they contacted B+M in the states and have sent me a brand new shifter out as a replacement for the old item.

as you usually get poor service i thought i would let people know.
