Richbrook do a 5-speed one and irmscher probably do one aswell. Or you could go to the stealers if it's a standard replacement your looking for.

Irmscher_Bits have got the handbrake, it says for 2.2DTi and the GSi which are 5 speed so I don't see why it wouldn't fit yours as I'm positive the gear knobs are all the same. Yes the How-2 should work as I think they are all the same unless there is any obvious diffirences on your gear knob?

Also have a look through this discussion thread for the how-2 as some people have raised some other ideas.

Watch eBay like a hawk, Irmscher UK have been selling a few off on there lately for about £30 BIN. Or you may be able to contact them and order one directly.

Failing that try LMF or as mentioned above Irmscher-bits should be able to help.
