Adapter Plate Product Description:
This extremely durable and high-quality adapter installs easily onto the existing input bracket on top of your MK7 GTI/Golf R transmission. No OEM parts need to be removed or modified during the installation process. Once installed, the adapter plate reduces shifter throws by 28%. CNC machined out of billet steel and weighing in at 270g, the increased weight aids in shifting momentum and positive engagement, improving the overall feel of your shifting experience.
The adapter bracket is designed and manufactured in Boomba's own facility, right here in the United States, and all mounting hardware is included. All adapter plates and hardware are zinc plated for durability and excellent appearance. A definite mod for daily drivers as well as autocross and road racing enthusiasts alike!
- Also fits: MK7 TDIs with 6-speed manual
- Also fits: MK7.5 models
Knob Product Description:
Weighing in at a solid 440g, the stock knob only weighs 100g.
This shift knob reduces the throw of your shifter by 28% over stock by shortening the height by 2 inches. Pair this with our Short Shift Transmission Adapter for a combined reduction of 48% over stock.
These shift knobs feature a precision CNC machined brass core for added weight as well as a Delrin shell for durability, excellent appearance, and ‘temperature management’. A heavier shift knob puts the weight towards the end of the shift lever. This increased momentum while shifting provides a greater mechanical advantage, allowing for a much more positive feeling throw when rowing through the gears. The Delrin shell, with a laser-etched Boomba logo, prevents the surface of the shift knob from getting too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter. These shift knobs make a great addition to your MK7 interior! They are secured to your shifter with various set screws.
This shift knob is designed and manufactured in Boomba's own facility, right here in the United States, and all mounting hardware is included.

Quick shift kit
Solid knob, simple install. Transmission adapter, while not a high-tech replacement, provides a great result while keeping the warranty. Shifts are solid and no longer feel like a cheep video game.

Shifted OMG
So good! An extra zip tie would be handy and some information in the video about where the washer goes would be my only feedback. I found where it went by locating in one of your product images. I’m ? for ?? made products! Billeted adapter is awesome as is the feel of the shifter. I had to recalibrate my brain after the install. TBH, it feels like over 50% reduction in travel which is ? Shifting is with such purpose and input that the car feels completely different to drive, in a good good way. I added some Loctite to set screws for added security. Didn’t get my green sticker but that’s ok, white will do.

Details matter
The shift knob is perfect and completes the car interior. The throw effect and feedback while shifting is a dream. Kits is worth the bundle. Only disappointment was I preference a green sticker to compliment my ride and I was given white. If you can send me a green one I’ll be very content.

MK7 Golf R
Love this kit. I usually don't install the mods myself, I tend to just pay a professional to do it, but this was very easy. Night and day difference, love the feeling. Much shorter throws and it feels very sturdy.
