You shouldn't need any. Just use the grease on the stock shifter. This should be more than enough. If not just visit your local auto parts place. most any grease will do. Lithium is a good product.
BTW just use the search feature and you will see about 30 posts regarding this.

Hope this helps.

I always use new grease on everything rather than trying to re-use old grease. White lithium should be fine.

ONLY use white lithium grease on your shifter. Comes in a blue long tube of it. But you only need a dab. I used it when I installed my short throw and I am so happy I did. Helped out alot in the cold and I would really recommend it.
