Description
Bullet Proof 020 5 Speed Shifter Relay Lever
WCR Bullet Proof Shifter Relay Lever for the shift linkage is made from Polycarbonate Carbon Fiber (PC-CF). Designed and manufactured in house at WCR North. These fit Mk1 & Mk2 Scirocco 5 speed 020 shift linkage. They also fit any A1 platform with a 020 5 speed. See list below for your application. Does not fit 4 speed transmission. Rebuildable ball ends are also available.
How it’s made
The PC-CF construction has a much higher wear resistance than the OEM rubber relay lever. Furthermore, the PC-CF has a much lower friction coefficient. This material allows the ball end to glide much easier than the OEM rubber. Another aspect of the PC-CF relay lever is that it is very light weight and is extremely high strength. Lastly, ouf PC-CF material has very high thermal resistance up to 200ºc / 392ºf. This requires special equipment that WCR has invested in to be able to make products like this for our customer. As polycarbonate is used in bullet proof glass, we’ve branded this as bullet proof.
Note: This is V1.0. V2.0 is in the product photos has a rounder ball end.

-
- Over tightening is not covered under warranty*. We will replace if any other failure occurs, however we will not issue refunds*.
- Over tightening will deform the mounting bracket causing the internal locking oval to rotate and it WILL break. The serrated nut will lock into place when tightening to the proper torque.
- We highly recommend replacing all the shift linkage bushings. If there is any tension in your shifter, you also need a linkage rebuild kit.
- DO NOT use power tools, such as electric or air powered impact guns or ratchets when removing or installing the nut. This WILL also break your relay shaft threads. – (Don’t ask how we know this)

- Note: Replacement ball ends do not fit OEM metal lever arms. If you purchased one to try and replace your rubber ball end, it will fall off and you will have to purchase the entire kit. Lever arms are not sold separately.
