Gear shift help

Hi Guys,

I'm having this same issue: http://www.e30zone.net/modules.php?name ... x+selector

With my gear stick being a bit out of place and generally all over the shop!! Its not really affecting my driving but would like to get it fixed so I can finally replace the torn and tattered gaiter on it!

I know of this guide: http://www.e30zone.net/modules.php?name ... echnz3.htm

Is it as simple as that guide suggests or would I also need to replace linkage bushes etc as the first thread suggests?

Would like to try this myself so looking for as detailed guide as possible before I go and break anything!! Also, where would be the best place to source the parts? Online or BMW dealer?

Thanks!

this is an easy job to do if its just the plastic bush on the gear stick while its out might aswell change to a z3 or z4m shifter to
