RSX/Civic/TSX Hybrid Racing Shifter Cable Bushings
Installed some used Hybrid Racing Shifter Cable Bushings. This has a spherical bearing in the larger bushing that moves vertically. Most cheaper bushing kits use a solid piece of aluminum or delrin. Hybrid Racing has good step by step instructions here.

Stock bushings
Undo and remove the stock cotter pin
Pry out the stock bushing with either a screw driver or pliers
Bushing and two washers
Insert new bushing
Spin on spiral retaining ring on the other side
Reinstall cable onto transmission
I added the washers back (not necessary as the spiral rings will hold the bushings in place) and installed cotter pins
Repeat the same on the second bushing
Done!
