Hi,

C3 gearbox has huge throw and I was thinking If its possible to install short shifter in it like from this website https://www.short-shifters.com/products/citroen/c3/
I see that it is available only for gearboxes BE4 but I have no idea which one is in my car. I was looking through documentation and still no luck. Any1 of you know which gearbox is installed in C3 2017 1.6 Hdi 5manual and maybe you know any other methods to reduce gear lever throw in this car.
Cheers
