[Es2] S2 6-speed shift linkage

[too many quattros]

tim, again, I could be wrong on this.  The info I got was from Javad
directly.  I was in their shop and overheard a conversation about about a
³034 designed² unit.  However, I do not believe JHM was making it.  Seems
they found some source in europe that already HAD made or would make the
parts.  I got this info back in June.  but, from my recollection, it was not
going to be for sale until August.  I was in a huge rush when I spoke
overheard javad talking about it and did not have time to stop and get the
full details.  I don¹t mean to mislead if I am wrong, it was just one of
those vague memories I would likely have not remembered if it were not for
seeing this post...

I would be surprised, since I talked to Jason at JHM directly, and he asked
me to send the parts, since he wasn't currently producing them. I asked them
a while ago to get me a price on the OEM part, and they said it was
something like $450 just for the lower shift linkage rod.

There are some frustrated posts about this on S2forum and Motorgeek, from a
guy that I talked to a while ago, when we were both looking for a rebuild
kit, just for the plastic bushing that goes in the cup. We couldn't find
anything.

Ben, do you want to follow-up with 034, just in case?
