use rubjonnys mk2 guide as they are similar to the mk3 020 box and the linkage is the same to set up http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=33100.0

Cool! cheers,  it looks a bit tricky unless i got that tool,  are those tools available from auto factors or is it a specialst jobby?   Does the gear stick just need to be in dead centre while the box is set to neutral?
