The install should be similar if not identical to this:

B&M Or RSide is the way to go.
Too bad the GB was a bust, but I'd still talk to David @ Kspec and get the Rside.

The Rside advanced is very nice. David has it in his ride. It's very similar to the B&M for install and feel, but you can adjust the height of this one. I'm gonna be selling my B&M next month to get the Rside.

is the Rside that nice? I have driven a couple of hondas with short shifters and I was NEVER impressed with the "I hope that's the right gear" feel those cars get with the shorth throw.

Yeah, it's really nice. The B&M feels great, but it just sits too high. The Rside Advanced fixes that. Look at the assembly in the bottom, looks almost identical to the B&M.
