Here we go...
Try Tiger Racing at www.tigerracing.com.
They do a budget one for £10.45 (although you'll need to fabricate the link arm).
Cheers

From what i understand the only ones for Four speed leave the end plug off the Gearbox casing.
I made my own, by cutting down the original gearlever, but you have to remove reverse gate from the box then add a link under the transmission tunnel
top rail to another lever at the desired area.
My extra lever is an antiroll bar drop link, cut in half and M10 thread on the top for original ball.
Its not my own design, i saw a fellow Locost'r had done it.

i did the same, used an old knackered ball joint and welded the gearstick that i had cut off to it and then made a link between that and what was left
of the original gearstick, was a very nice shift, you can design in some ratio and make a quickshift
