				As far as older cars come. I always thought that old Mazda's had pretty good boxes aye! A good position, positive feel, and a nice throw 

 . Nothing compared to modern cars of today though! 
 
  
 hahah.

				I must heat my garage and the shifter 20h to get good results with the sikaflex 221 i. After fitting also a new rubber mount for the box, all working like new when made some test drive now.
Especially the rear gear problem was fixed now. 

 No gases inside  anymore.

I would recommend this type for more security if the centrifugal forces on your rear will be higher then standard or rust was a killer of your parts. So the two screw breaking  on the road, you will need a new car i think.

				I agree with Thomas quite strongly there. Many of these cars have bent watts link studs aye.
