• Renault Espace (1997 - 2002) - 98 2.2 diesel gear linkage 26 May 2008 (Forum)

They only supply what they call the gear linkage assembly which includes the gear knob (I was even asked whether I wanted a vinyl or leather one), the gear lever, the assembly it fits into, and the 2 gear change cables one for forward gears the other for reverse.
