It doesn't matter if they fit or not because if they dont we can take measurements and they will MAKE them and send them out so either way we get them it's just a matter of time.

David from DDMWorks got back to me and said that he did some looking into it and from what he's seen they should fit. He said that he wasn't able to confirm with part #'s or drawings (still waiting) so he is only 99% sure. So if you do order them, don't be mad if they don't fit. You can always send them back.

I figure for $25, I'm going to order them and try them out.

I asked him if they don't fit, if I could do some measurements and collect some data and have them make a set for the Cruze. He said yes. So, shifter bushing here we come!

These vendors [Forge, DDMWorks] are really nice to talk to. DDMWorks are giving the 1.4 a lot of love. Plenty of stuff in the pipeline coming from them [for the Sonic] so maybe we'll get some love too.

Where the bushings go btw ?

Under the shifter boot. I'll take pics when I put them in.

I'm not entirely sure what a short shifter is, but if I had to guess it means shortening the distance between gears. I'm going to have to go with no on this one.

1. This isn't a real sports car. (I do however want a performance clutch for those times you need to hammer it, that second gear grinding sucks.)
2. It's not really that far of a shift. Considering I've driven my friends F 150 with a manual transmission, our gearbox is really close and tight in comparison. So to y'all I could see maybe a want for a short shifter...
but in short I'm voting no on this one. I don't know how much it'd cost but I'd rather spend the money on other mod's.

I recommend watching this before making any judgement calls. In this vid the stock throw is 7mm and they take it to 4mm which = HUGE HUGE difference.
