^ What kind of problems? Bolts won't come loose? Can't get to them?

Provide some detail, I'm sure everyone will try to help.

You need to remove these two bolts. The easiest way to reach them is to remove your air intake and your battery. You won't be able to see them, you'll have to find them with your fingers.

There is no tool known to man that can reach that. I took out my intake and battery and there is just no way. My car is sitting in my garage now with no battery no linkage and no intake because I needed to post this. Did you cut the bracket that holds those wires that are connected to the bracket that holds the shift cables??? Also how do you get the cables out of the bracket???

Sweet. Just ordered the bracket plate only coz i already got the SSK. Cant wait til I put this on my car now. Thanks Garm.

Hey Mazilla what part of SD are you from bro? We should meet up so I can feel how your SSK with the bracket feels like. Text me bro...619-618-5302, Noel.

If I recall correctly it was a standard 14MM(could be smaller) socket, it should take all of about 5 minutes to get those two bolts off. The bolt heads are going to be facing away from you, you just reach across the engine and using your fingers find the bolt head then slip the socket over and loosen them, you may need a small length of pipe over the wrench handle for added leverage if the bolts are extremely tight. If it's the cables that are blocking you, remove them from the bracket first(see below).


I took out my intake and battery and there is just no way.

It should be very easy at that point...

My car is sitting in my garage now with no battery no linkage and no intake because I needed to post this.






Did you cut the bracket that holds those wires that are connected to the bracket that holds the shift cables???

No, I didn't have to cut anything.


Also how do you get the cables out of the bracket???

This was the hardest part for me, but it still wasn't a big deal. Apply pressure from the bottom(with a flat head screwdriver or something) and slide those two retaining plates up and off of the bracket. The cables will slide up and out afterwards. I ran my retainers across my buffing wheel a few times, that's why they are all shiny. I figured it would help illustrate the process.





I'm sorry this is giving you so much trouble...

just need the right tools for it and a leverage/breaker bar and turn clockwise if the bolt is behind to loosen the bolt youll be surprise how some people gets that clockwise , counter clockwise mixed up specially in this situation..

I couldn't figure out this bracket as well. I can't seem to get the cables out of the old bracket....

I was planning on doing this, and the cage bushings I got from Garm, ended up only doing the cage bushings today.

I didn't worry about the bracket for now. I will have more time next weekend (not this weekend) to mess with it. I did like the difference in the short shifter vs stock. I now really wonder how much the bracket helps. I plan to put it on but several people are having a heck of a time with it. if there are any secrets/tips to getting this thing off, I am all ears.

Mazilla had an easy install, as did a couple of other customers so far (not forum members).

When in doubt, consult the Toyota repair manuals, which are published (I think still) on Etimago's site, and maybe on here too.

Cali Yaris, you've got a typo on your sale page:

"This give a smoother shift feel than the short shifter piece alone."

"give" should be "gives"
