Helix Motorsports Short Shifter
The Helix Short Shift conversion unit is a precision machined piece that installs in place of the existing OEM part. The Short Shift component allows for a simpler solution to reducing throw of the shifter, rather than replacing the complete shifter unit, as some other solutions require.
I'm not sure which short shift unit is for my car?
Choose 02-03 MINI if you have the gray retaining clip, all other MINIs have a white retaining clip and use the later model of adapter. If you have an 03 or 04 model here's how to check the retaining clip: carefully pull the plastic ring (the bezel) at the bottom of the shifter boot straight up. It will pop off the console to expose four plastic tabs around the perimeter. Look below the bezel at the plastic housing that holds the shifter rod in place with a ball socket. On an '02 or '03, much of the plastic linkage will be white but right where the metal shaft and ball enter the linkage, the plastic will be grey. In the '04 models, the housing will be grey and the ball socket will be white.
