Hola back,

I've got the ETKA print out sitting here.  As far as the parts go, you'll
need:
823 711 643 A - ball socket for gearshift lever
823 711 199 - pressure spring
251 711 645 - hemisphere
823 711 255 - bearing for socket (need 2)
171 711 279 - rubber mounting
171 711 227 A - spacer ring

All the above pieces you can pre-assemble and drop in as a unit.  That's
what I
did.

171 711 166 - bushing (2 required) - these are the bushings where the pin
goes
through the shift rod.  You have to get at these by dropping the spare
tire and
dropping the bottom off the shift box.  They make a big difference too and
are
cheap.

Hope that helps,
