Hi chaps, about to drop my gearbox out and obviously my linkage bushes are shot. I had a quick Google search and it just seems to be bringing up kits in the US, anywhere in the UK do a complete set that anyone knows of so I don't have to cock around with individual part numbers?
Thanks in advance

Cheers Steve, I'm not really looking to do a conversion, just after buying a full kit to refurbished my original like this... https://goo.gl/images/OITQOG

Anything like that about in the UK?

Ignore the part about the short shifter, I posted that link as it gives all the part numbers for the bits you need, look at the picture in the top right.

Best place to get them would be cotswold BMW through here.

Post up in their section with the part numbers & they'll give you a quote.

Thanks bud, they'll probably be a last resort as the last few thins I've had from them were wrong, but I understand that the one lad has left now, so hopefully fewer balls ups now. I've gotta pop up there soon to chase missing intake boot and return a wrong coolant hose!

Hi Dunc

did you get this sorted? I need to do the same and I wondered if you found a kit?
