Need a replacement spiral spring for the linkage, it was broken in two when I bought the 96, although it seemed to operate OK, I guess the spring is to stop inadvertently selecting reverse?

They all break at some point, I believe that they're mainly there to keep the bellows in position. You can do without no problem (at least on LHD cars).
