                    No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.

                        Hmm you guys make me unsure, i might have mixed it with a E36 i changed the shifter on? :crazy:
                        I have to lift the boot on the IX tomorrow and check! Were talking about just the shifter right? Not the linkage or anything like that?

                            i hope you're thinking of the e30iX! I'm mainly looking to change just the shifter bushing, tiny little piece that'll make my shifter stop feeling so slushy

                                        What bushings/ parts would I need to remove the slop from my shifter and I can I do it from the top?

                                        here is a write up I found, do you just need the rod, between parts 10-12?
