Repeat the same steps for gears 5 and 6, using the grub xxxx indicated by the yellow arrow. Actuate the reverse pin by pulling the reverse plunger near the gear xxxx and xxxx in the grub xxxx indicated by the blue arrow until reverse can be selected correctly.
10. Bolt the cover plate onto the base from underneath the vehicle. Apply minimal torque on the bolts and use loctite to prevent torque loss over time.
11. Reinstall the heat shields, exhaust, undershields, battery tray, air filter, and reconnect the battery.
12. Before setting off, ensure that all moving parts on the shifter are lubricated and check that all gears can be engaged. It is advised to take small test drives and make re-adjustments if necessary.
