Installation Notes

1. Verify Vehicle Compatibility: Confirm that the vehicle is a 1992–1997 Honda del Sol equipped with a compatible B-Series engine and manual transmission.

2. Confirm Transmission Compatibility: Verify that the transmission uses the appropriate B-Series rod-operated shift linkage configuration.

3. Safely Raise the Vehicle: Use appropriate lifting equipment and jack stands to access the underside of the vehicle.

4. Remove Existing Shift Linkage: Disconnect and remove the factory or previously modified shift linkage assembly.

5. Inspect Shifter Components: Check the shifter assembly, bushings, mounting points, and transmission shift mechanism for excessive wear or damage.

6. Install Innovative Mounts Linkage: Position the replacement linkage between the shifter assembly and transmission using the appropriate mounting points.

7. Secure Mounting Hardware: Install and tighten all linkage fasteners according to the applicable manufacturer specifications.

8. Verify Gear Engagement: With the engine off, cycle through all forward gears and reverse to confirm proper linkage movement.

9. Inspect Clearance: Ensure the linkage moves freely without contacting the exhaust, chassis, or surrounding drivetrain components.

10. Professional Installation Recommended: Installation by an experienced automotive technician is recommended for proper fitment and shifting operation.
