    Gear Linkage

    Hi I posted on here a while ago re a slack and knocking gear linkage. The spring isn’t broken but potentially worn bushes. Can someone advise me if they are easy to change? I can actually only see one, is the other within the gaiter? TIA

    Any ideas what this could be?

    Anyone have an idea what the green thing could be for? I've not noticed it flash or do anything other than look messy. I've looked through my cars folder and found alarm 7895 - 7897 manual but I'm pretty sure that's what the red ones for... Any help greatly appreciated :)

    Gearbox questions....

    It's about that time.... The gearbox in mine is on the way out, or at least the syncro's are... I was wondering if anyone would recommend a straight oem replacement or another one - i do the occasional track work with the car and it's my weekend toy so does get used.... Any suggestions?
