RE: Gearshift Lever interchangability?

[Richard Brake <richard.brake@domain.elided>]

The top parts of the overdrive switch are the same across all these
Triumphs; Stag, 2000, 2.5, Spitfire, GT6, Dolomite, (I have no
experience of TR's).
.
The following parts are all the same;
The Chrome ring
	The Black base
	The internal locking ring
	The electric switch
	There are three different types of cap depending on where
reverse is located.
	(the caps are interchangable and good for confusing thief's)	

You could use the original TR gearstick and drill it for the wiring and
then cut a thread for the rings. The Stag 2000/2.5 and Sprint gearsticks
are basically the same (top and bottom) I don't know if they have
different angles/lengths for the position of the gear-knob.

	No they wouldn't..but I'm 99.7% sure the Stag one will.
