Do you have a pic of the shifter linkages/bushings? I've bought some before and replaced pretty much all of them on my car. FYI, it made a huge difference, and now I'm running two different short-shifter linkages and changing gear feels a whole lot better, very precise compared to what it was before (pretty much stirring a pot). You'll need a 13mm spanner and/or socket and maybe pliers/flathead screwdriver. First thing to do is to remove the linkages one by one. There's no set rule as to which one you should take off first but generally I pop off the selector rods first (your kit should have new ones) followed by undoing the 13mm nut on the top of the relay shaft. Your kit should have all the different bushings to replace the old ones so as you take out each linkage, remove the old bushings and push in new ones. It's quite annoying to do as they're made to fit perfectly, so this is where the flathead or pliers help. Apply some general purpose lube on the new bushings and on the joints before you assemble it back again. Use the diagrams below for help if you've forgotten what it should look like once assembled.
