Oo,dear,thats nnot good !!
from experience,it might be cheaper and easier to replace the ewhole box,they can be picked up for £150 sometimes,whereas the labour involved and price of new gears/syncro`s can be alot more.

Get it sorted sooner rather than later. My box suffered similair problems (not with the bits falling out though!) and it let go all of a sudden leaving me stranded and waiting for the RAC. Luckliy they took it straight to Powerstation who sorted it out with the addition of a LARGE bill.
Find out who your local Scooby specialist is and have a chat with them. A removal, inspect and fix is likely to be around the £500 mark but thats better than a full rebuild at £1K.
You could buy a second hand box and get them to fit this, it may work out cheaper (£300ish + box ) but you have to rely on getting a good second hand box.
