same happened to me last week......firewall on both sides has a crack and gears are getting harder to change by the day.
I havent been bothered doing anything at the moment as i have no $$$ but i believe ford make a plate that you weld on and this fixes the engine side but not the cabin side...

if you can get this plate please let me know where you got it from and what is cost you or if any one has one of them a picture or drawing would be great as mine has broken the mount all the way through and is now sitting on the cable and i have a hole in the firewall
ok yeah there was a feild fix part for the manual falcon i did some diggin and asked the parts interpreter at work and yeah he gave me the number for a place that should know if the plate is still available its coventry auto parts in lidcombe i think.
i got all the details at work ill post em tomorrow.

i fixed mine by taking the piece out and wielding it to a 6m plate and screwing it back on the wall works really well andthe only thing you have to disconnect is the clutch cable
i will post a picture of it if anyone wants it
