Aygo MK1 Gearstick bushing

[BigBadDad43]

Hi,  Firstly apologies if I'm doing this all wrong but I'm a newbie so please cut me a little slack 😉.  I have a 2009 Aygo with a manual gearbox and I've been looking quite literally everywhere for some replacement bushings for the gearstick (the nylon plastic parts at the business end of the gearstick).  Can anybody recommend or tell me where I can get some from as I need to fix the extremely wobbly gearstick.  I have already got the gear linkage cables on order, so if I can also get my hands on the bushings then my thinking is that I can fully resolve all of the wobbly gearstick issues which the car is suffering from.

Many thanks in advance - all help and guidance is very much appreciated 😊

After alot of investigation, it transpires that the only way to replace the bushings is to change the entire gearstick mechanism as the bushings are not available separately, evidently they didn't think they'd wear out!

There is an aftermarket kit

I did actually buy that aftermarket kit but it doesn't fit the mk1 Aygo. The round part might fit but the other bit with the 3 screw holes is for the newer Aygo models. I ended up having to buy a complete replacement gearstick unit; https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/115463281859?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=36mNKSrVQCm&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=XntV-NlzTEi&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

It just screws down with self tappers into the housing
