Use the search function, there was a thread about the Forge kit about 9 months ago.

i saw it, but most of them were talking about TDi! so i wasn't sure! and the ebay link they posted were sold off ages ago!
i found this one
VW Golf, GTi, Jetta, Audi A3 1.8T 5 Speed Trans Forge Short Shifter FMVAG5QS | eBay
but not sure if that would fit to the polo gti or not

This is what you need here on the Forge site...

I've got the dieselgeek 6 speed in my S3 and loving it.

you could contact them to see if their offerings suit the polo also

Yes, it is. I was confirming that it would fit, as it is the same one I have fitted to my Polo GTI.

This was a good mod as was the 42DD bushes. I think the bushes had a few variants.

I didn't find the 42DD bushes made anywhere near as much difference as the Forge short shifter.

If I had to choose, I'd either just get the Forge or go whole hog with the Dieselgeek.

i think the forge one cost cheaper! too!

The Forge one is very simple to install if you have a heat gun.

However I did help install one where the fat cylindrical shift pin (the one used on our cars) did not have the thread properly machined on to it.
