My short shifter problem

Ok so I had purchased a short shifter kit from kart boy(cool I know right). There is a problem its for a 1997-2001 impreza, while I own a 1996 impreza. The shift linkage is wrong and I don't feel like sending it back(I already installed the bushings). So what are my options, I was thinking about trying to fit a linkage from a newer impreza, would that work? Any suggestions would be super cool.

Thanks in advance

 

you guys gonna work on this tonight at the old "warehouse"?

 

I'll buy it from you if you don't wanna return it

 

pm tom from kartboy on nasioc...he's pretty cool and would prob work with you

 

Or just email him. His attitude towards helping out customers is truly amazing. Great guy. I love my short shifter and silver knuckleball. They just feel sooooooo right. I'd better stop now before this starts to sound any more pervy.

 

Well the reason I am unsure if can return it is because I bought it as a package deal so I am unsure how much the will refund me, and if the cost of the refund is gonna be less then getting a new shift linkage, I would like to swap it out. And to answer your question erik I am unsure when tim and I will be doing this, I think some help from some others would be good. I have never done this is there a write up on this?
