Bump. looking at getting these Torque Solution Shifter Cable Bushings VW Golf VR6 MK4 1999 99 | eBay

Can anyone tell me if i can buy them locally in sydney or do i have to fork out $30 postage for 3 bits of rubber?

Get the 42DD ones from Carformance (local Aussie distributor for 42DD)

Contact JMAC on here. He replaced the gear linkages on my 1.6 MK4 last year. He will know exactly what you need.

So i found out what the clinking noise was the bushings are gone on the rod so these bushings i got dont really help me that much except for a tighter shifter. But i have no clue where they go onall the youtube tutorials are crap!! Someone help me out!

The bushings you have gotten appear to be the ones that mount the shift lever up into the trans tunnel.
