All I had to do for mine was cut a small section out of the torsion housing (as the gbox is now slightly longer) and mod the area (with a mallet) under the back seat where the seat belt anchorage points are, as the gbox touches in this area.

Rear parcel shelf area (at seat belt anchorage point) is "massaged" with a mallet to allow for the larger selector/mid housing of the Berg 5.
