INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION OF VOLVO SHORT SHIFTER KIT

Tools required:
  • Flathead screwdriver.
  • Electrical crimper/cutter.
  • Fine needlenose pliers or c-clip remover (or even something with a pointy tip)
  • 4mm or 5/32” hex key, ideally a 3/8” driver style. A similar size of torx will do in a pinch. Driver extensions are very handy.
  • 8mm and 10mm socket driver.
  • Work light!
Procedure:
  • Remove leather boot (if equipped).
  • Remove shifter knob
  • Using screwdriver, carefully pry out knob cover:
  • Pull out overdrive button (later models may be attached with small screws). Disconnect from wires.
  • Pull off knob, it should be on snugly.
  • Pry out the 4 plugs holding the shifter boot to the chassis.
  • Remove the boot.
  • Leaving some slack, cut the 2 overdrive button wires:
  • Remove the (2) 8mm bolts (arrowed) holding on the reverse lockout gate and remove the gate.
  • Using fine needle nose, or c clip remover, or pointy tool, remove the c-clip:
  • Put the transmission into reverse.
  • (under the car) using the hex key, remove the set screw on the bottom of the shifter. It’s a tight squeeze under there so this is where the extensions will come in.
