Probably at some stage I,ll have to change my automatic T3 over to manual. I,ve got all the hardware off a donor car but is there a more simple way of installing the clutch cable tube?. ( I understand some auto,s have the manual pipes etc fitted but not used but not mine) Probably a hydraulic conversion would be easier as far as running the tube if you could find a suitable slave/master cylinder. I was thinking of cutting access holes in tunnel to fit tube then welding back up again. Any better ideas? Cheers John

Long ago, a UK bloke by name of Matt Claydon wrote a lengthy web page all about converting a Type 1 car from AutoStick to Manual. The site is long gone but, thru the magic of the WayBack machine, the pages have been archived here:

There is a link on the page for a How-To on installing a conduit tube. The T3 should be the same in that regard although you have to watch dimensions as they changed year to year.

These archived pages may take a while to load, so be patient.
