Default Need instructions for installing Automatic Shift Adapter

Fellow Members:

I'm going to be selling some of my C5 items (since I bought a new C6), and I'm in need of the instructions for installing a Automatic Shift Adapter. I purchased the adapter from a forum member, but never got the instructions (and never installed it).

Thanking you in advance..............

Ron

Ron! Long time no see! Congrats on the C6 what color did you get? What kind of adapter is it? Are you trying to install an aftermarket shifter *** on your auto c6?

Hey Rick!


Just picked up a new Black C6. The bad thing is, I can't get any good weather to break it in.

When I had the C5, I had purchased the automatic shift adapter from a forum member (I was going to install it on the silver convertible).

Unfortunately I never got the instructions for it. Now I'm going to sell it, but I don't feel right without selling it without the instructions.

I'll be posting my items by the end of the week (with 10% of the proceeds going to St. Judes.

If you can find the instructions, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks............


Ron

Not familiar with this item. Can you tell us what it is, what it does, and/or point us to a web page about this item?

The only thing I can think of is a CAGS (aka Skip-Shift) Eliminator. Is that what you're talking about?

No, all his cars are automatics. The cags bypass is for the manual. I think what he is talking about is an adapter so you can install a different aftermarket shifter *** inplace of the factory auto shift ***. I've heard of these but never really messed with one.

Ron, do you know who made it? or can you post some pics of it?
