MINI Cooper Project 26: Installing a Short Shift Kit

Anyone got any questions on Project 26 - Installing a Short Shift Kit for your MINI Cooper or Cooper S?

Here's a back link to the original article: Pelican Technical Article: 26-TRANS-Installing_a_Short_Shift_Kit

I have a 2003 MCS and want to install the "Megan" Short Shiftkit. This is listed as the parts kit for a 2002/2003 R53:

Pelican Parts - Product Information: PEL-OUTMSSE

I found and bought a similar kit on ebay:

Megan Short Throw Shifter 02 03 Mini Cooper R50 R53 SS Mini | eBay

Niether kit has the o-ring that was included with the B&M kit. Can you tell me what's the size of the o-ring (Figure 24)? Can I reinstall the one from the OEM shifter?

I called and spoke to a parts specialist but they couldn't help me out and suggested I post the question here in the forums. Thanks in advance for the help!
