I'm after the bush that sits on the bracket inside the engine bay (drill out rivets to remove) that the gear selector rod goes into sorry can't upload a pic but are on eBay for £3 is this what I need if someone can show an image of it or part number would be a great help.

Check the ball on the relay tower, and the bushing at the base of the gear stick. Wear there really affects the shift quality.
When i put some grease on this bush, gear levers works very nice, but after few days grease dries and lever works ok. What is the solution? I was thinking, some rubber gaiter to protect from dust/water, some type of slide bearing maybe.
I used silicone grease as normal grease will attack and swell rubber components. Was going to change the lot but my gear shift relay looks different instead of a ball I have a bobbin shaped cog creates a lot of play surly the wrong part?
It looks different, because it's fcuked! The outer part of that is completely missing. I actually replace them with a nylon roller now, transforms the shift precision. But a new relay tower will be a huge improvement on that. 20 quid on ebay, from the likes of Tierod69 / BandB Components
Yep as Tristan says you need a new lever arm the ball as broken up and fallen off leaving that bobbin shaped cog, the lever arm is around £6 to £7 on ebay but I would suggest the kit for £20 from b and b components (tierod69) on ebay as it comes with all the bushes etc as you usually find other bushes etc worn.
