Nice new Gear Knob!
« on: May 06, 2011, 03:32:27 pm »


Today before attempting to fit the Forge Twintake I've replaced my standard GTI knob and gaitor with a nice new one.


Before Shot



Upskirt Shot!  :love:



The attachment ring



And the new shiny one fitted - mm lovely



All done in 5 mins with a pair of pliers!
Simples  :jumping:

Do like those gear knobs  :grin:
Much smarter than the standard GTI one.
Anyone know if there is a 5 speed version?

 I fitted one of these ball knobs and it looks and feels great.  They can be bought from HK for about £40 with no customs.

Yep my GTI is an Irish import, no Aircon/Climate but does have a sunroof so I really dont miss it.
Love the new gear knob and got a good price for the old one on Fleabay!
