Default WHATS WRONG WITH THIS...... PIC INCL

Me again!

Can you guys tell me if something is wrong. The shifter in my 94 cx seems to be on backwards. When the car is in first gear the shifter looks like an automatic since it sits so far up.

It feels weird and doesnt feel like my 00siR at all.

some pics:

FIRST GEAR NO BOOT:

Any ideas?

It is on backwards. Have you taken it out for any reason?

Defiantely on backwards....I bet thats a bear to drive, because I already have problems reaching 5th gear in mine with the shifter on correctly! Just pull it out and switch it the other way!

Not quite.

Somply undo the through bolt at the bottom of the shifter lever (think they are 12mm or 14mm on each side) and turn that lever 180 degrees and put the bolt back through and tighten it.

drop the tranny? no. all he has to do is unbolt his shift linkage, pop that bitch out, and put it on the right way, should take him half an hour

OT: What's up with the clutch pedal? Looks like the brake pedal was copied and pasted where the clutch pedal should be.

Notice how the clutch pedal looks like a square that was pasted on?

I just saw the edges around the pic and was like WTF?

Yeah you're so right.

Look even the dirt is at the exact same location. It is copy and pasted.
