Hey guys!
I was busy last half of year, but now I'm ready to finish this project.
I stuck with the gear shift.
Can anyone tell me - where are transmission air valve and transmission shift cylinder can locate on this gear shift?

That's how I made new wind screen:

the old one was too thick.

Do not pay attention to wires (rubbers). I will put them in place later.
