MK2 8v GTi

Easiest and cheapest method is to drill another hole in the gearbox linkage, about 1" lower than the standard hole.

another option is to make a plate with 2 holes in and bolt it to the end of the relay shaft lever, then no need to modify anything.

some nice stuff on there, poly relay shaft ball and bushes are a nice upgrade, the ball kits are good as well.
