Went to sort out my gear linkage today on my day off and realised that one of the nylon bushes is buggered so going to replace all of them and revamp the whole linkage on the weekend instead when I have more time (and the parts)
Anyone got a link where I can buy a complete nylon bush and cir-clip set in one go (lmf vauxhall or vauxhall bits links please) this way I can get them ordered for the weekend, cheers!

I bought the 2 cup bushes from vauxhall (was about £8 I think)
And the middle nylon one from LMF

Spoke to lmf and bought their bushes, but decided as I need to refurbish the linkage decided to buy all new linkage bushes and circlips from vaux
Have a vaux dealer 5mins from work so popped in there on a break to buy what I needed, Jesus what a faff, the parts guy there is a miserable bastard to say the least, when I explained what car it was you could see he wasn't interested in helping me, tried saying they don't sell linkage parts separate and tried to flog me a new complete linkage that's over a ton....errr no...
Once he found out I was in the trade and knew he was talking bollocks, he then decides to actually do some work and look up the part numbers for the bits I wanted....surprise surprise they all are sold separately what a shocker, arsehole, I reckon he couldn't be arsed searching all the part numbers. Rally not looking forward to having to order parts anytime soon from him, in either case, never had a good experience buying parts from any vaux garage, all fucking useless, rant over

I agree. Always lower prices for the same parts, and arrive super quickly. I ordered an opel badge for my bootlock, they said 7-10 days and it turned up in 3. Lol Same with my brakes, ordered them and they turned up in 3 days.

This really don't shock me tbh bud. The parts lad at my local vauxhall is a f**king asshole prick! I went in not long back for a new timeing belt kit for my corsa X20XEV,i gave him the part number to save him time ect only for him to come back telling me and i have the wroug part number for my car and you can't fit a 2.0 in a corsa!

Call them every time. Their website is getting a overhaul as this one is, well empty.
They have most things in stock so can either collect (like I've just done 2 hours ago) or post straight away.
