id guess that the 5th gear synchros or maybe the shift fork is worn down. if you were going to pay a shop and have them replace the worn parts, i think it would be cheaper and easier to just find a good used tranny somewhere and have them put it in.

you should also check to be sure you have fluid in your clutch resevoir. its a common problem for clutch cylinders to leak fluid causing gears to grind... just a possible solution.

but that normally makes it harder to put in 1st gear and all gears in general.

Low tranny fluid causes 5th gear to pop out.

That's the cheapest troubleshooting you can do before you take your car to a shop for an ***-raping.
