Default B&M Short Shifter on 2007

Will it work? I looked over the instructions on B&M's site and don't see any reason why it wouldn't, but their site says 2000-2005. Any reason it wouldn't work?

Well I did some deep researching and found that the gearbox and shifter column are the same part numbers in a 2001 and a 2007, so I'm assuming this should work.

Yes mechanically the nb is the same car for the entire run with the exception of engine types and transmissions.

So I would agree that the kit should work on your '07.

Post up some pics once you have it in.

Don't bother with that kit. Dieselgeek's short shifter is way better.
