Hi guys

I have juat installed my new DSSR bar from Garagistics and i have come across a problem. The drive shaft does not let the DSSR bar go low enough to connect to tbe shifter due to the vibration damper getting in the way. Do i have to bend the bar some how or can i take the vibration damper off ? Oh and its on a UK car

Thanks

Vibration damper is not required with any guibo made in the last twenty years.
