Does anyone know how to replace Shifter Bushings?

My Shifter rattles after hard acceleration. I've been told I need new bushings. Are these things difficult to replace?

Neither one is a tough one to replace - since I was there, I replaced both. The one directly underneath involved me removing the console to get to the bushing. The second is simply 'upstream' from the shifter. I jacked up the car and placed on floor jacks so I could move around without banging up my head.

Go to autohausaz.com - they have 'em all (they're different colors, make sure you check - one is translucent, clear, and the other is green), if in doubt buy 'em all. I bought like three of each since they're like .68 to .80 cents a piece.
