You only need the 2 white plastic cups and black plastic bar to rebuild your linkage
I think you can still get them from vauxhall, the black bar has part number on it and not sure about the white plastic cups

Gear linkage? Any scrap Corsa.
Probably somewhat cheaper to get the repair kit, I'll try and dig out a part number.

Don't be daft, it's lots of labour but not difficult.

£30 for a 5 second job! Hmmm, you need to find a friend who can do these little jobs for you.
If you took it to the garage where I used to work, he'd not charge for doing that.

you need to start doing little jobs on your car mate, get a haynes to help or something
£30 to screw a plastic nut is a rip off

I used to have to stop at the side of the road and adjust my clutch sometimes as kept backing itself off, especially when driving in traffic . Literally took seconds to do
Get yourself a haynes manual from ebay and have a look through the relevant section and any questions ask on here and then give things a go yourself
