The Vanagon short shift kit is available from Fast German Auto (www.fastgermanauto.com) for $79.99. I purchased mine from them over a year ago. Its a very easy installation and worth every penny. I added a length of black liquid-tite conduit over mine to cover the extension connection. For a picture, go to http://home.earthlink.net/~tjhannink/ and select [Drive train] from the left column, its near the bottom of the page.

Is the short shift kit something used to shorten the throw of the shifter? I went to the Gene Berg site and saw that he only offers parts for '71 and older Type IIs - then I left. I am hoping that I misinterpreted this and that the short shift kit is available for my '88 Weekender. Is this shift kit available for the '88?
