Type 9 gear lever/quick shift

Ello,
 
Looking to buy a type 9 shift lever and the mounting assembly, preferably quick shift, but a standard for cheap will do. For conversion on a MK2 escort.
Need to be able to post it to Queanbeyan next door to Canberra. 
If I can't get one off here soon I'll likely grab this from ebay:

Cheers,

Rob

    I'll have to reduce my pricing. Darn pound to dollar ratio.... keeps getting better and better and I paid for mine 6 months ago.

    I got mine a couple of years ago.  Have now sold he car, but still got the shifter.
     
    Is a rose jointed one (they do vibrate on a street car and can drive you a little nuts over time if your car is otherwise quiet) that I fitted a rubber boot onto and filled with grease to make it durable for the road.  I can post to ACT for $90 if you would like. By the time I got the shifter and boot it cost me about $120.  Only ever fitted to the car for less than 100km....

    Just my 2.2c worth including GST....

    Sorry have ordered the one from ebay, seemed a good deal, and I found a guide on stopping the vibration and noise of a rose jointed shifter by tapping 3 holes in the mounting block and using some bolts, dont quite remember how it went but I could get the link when I get home.
    If the UK one ordered is no good Ill get back.
    Cheers,

    The UK one is most likely very similar (looks to be the same design - just hope for you it is not a cheap copy).. It is the rose joint that makes the vibration - so the design as similar will most likely vibrate.... (Have heard other peoples tales on how to stop them vibrating, but have not heard of any success stories, so I would be interested to see what you are doing an if it actually works in the real world...)
