G-Box detent fix

ordered the gbox detent 2nd gear pop out fix from eric last week. installed it 3 days ago. my car was experiencing the 2nd gear pop out at least 3 times a week. after the installation i tried to get it to happen several times and not once has it happened again one of the best things i've done to my car. definately a fix if your trans is not internally damaged yet thanks again, eric this thing saved me alot of money
