Jim, two bolts in the front and a small rubber / bolt isolator in the rear are all that holds the shifter mechanism to the tranny, so no need to pull it, you do need to remove the center column / package tray assembly, pretty straight forward after that, one thing you might want to consider though, if your going to put plastic bushings back in you'll be doing the job again if you plan on keeping the car any lenght of time, you might want to switch the bushings to brass or bronze for longer life.

Plus if I remember correctly Pete (Yellow Dog) Barr makes a 5 speed shifter kit that will last the life of the car, just for info.

If you need a picture of the assembly itself let me know and I'll E-mail it to you.

Brett.
