I think someone should write up a DIY procedure on this and submit it to the 944 DIY section.

Finally, I was inspired to install my peanut sponge I read about a few months ago after reading this thread.

I installed the peanut sponge last night. Shifts tighter, less rattle on an aftermarket ****, cut down, rebuilt shifter. I am not sure how long it will last, but an excellent cheap fix for a neggling issue. Thanks 944-LT1. Thanks Rennlist.
