TRD Short Shifter Kit - HELP!

[pirate125]

I have just purchased a TRD short shifter kit and I know that this might sound like a stupid question but here goes:

Do I need to take the gearbox out of the car temporarily to install this kit or can this be installed with the gearbox in situ?

The reason that I have asked is because my short shifter kit came with the instuctions in Japanese and I just need to know this before I start as I think that I can manage everything else on my own

Thanks in advance
