Manual mk3/roadster sticking in gear

Dash out. 

I recall that being a bit involved.
Doffs cap.

Dash will come out this weekend so I can work out what I'm going to do to refinish it.

If you could document that would be nice ! I might need to do that myself very soon

Well got a look the mr2 looked at by my mechanic friend. Says yep it's gearbox, actually thinks there might be water in there somehow??
Never heard of that before but the guys never too far wrong when it comes to diagnosis so I'll be hunting for a replacement gearbox this weekend. Depending on price I may just start the engine swap instead.

@bobo83 - I found a guide I'll link to when I dig it out again. Dash out is never an "easy" job but doesn't look any worse than others tbh. Fiddly access more than a difficult job
