VW 02M Shift Fork Issues

So here are some pics for those of you with a 6 speed  02M transmissions that might have lost some gears in the past or might lose some in the future. This is a very common problem in these transmissions and typically what happens is that all of a sudden you will lose some gears like 1-2. The problem lies in the shift fork design which is riveted on from the factory. The fastener becomes loose and when you jam the car into 2nd it just falls off. Below are pics of a customers 02M transmission that this just recently happened to. Bluewater Performance has a way to reinforce the fork so that this does not happen again in the future.Denver VW Performance
You can see in this picture below that in the bottom right the steel bracket that is riveted to the 1-2 shift fork is missing.

Here is the piece that is actually missing.
