mel97 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Hiya, has anyone upgraded the gear stick on a lower spec ka to the gear stick in the titanium / grand prix? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerFlame Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Do you mean the actual gearknob? If so, I think they just screw on and off. They're tight at first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mel97 Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share Posted August 21, 2015 Yeah I have to lift it to put into reverse I don't know if that makes a difference to what kind of one I need ? Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC I'm pretty sure it does, I looked at replacing the gear knob on my old Mk2 Clio but was put off as you had to lift a "ring" to put it into reverse, and I couldn't find any gear knobs that I liked that had this.

mel97 Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share Posted August 21, 2015 That's the exact same as my problem :/ I just don't really know much about changing it tbh. Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC You'll need to get one that is compatible with the car, most custom gear knobs are not designed for "lift up" reverse operation, that will obviously restrict or "limit" your choice significantly.... Shop around for a Gearknob you like, but just make sure that you filter for "lift up reverse" as in the attached image, anything other than a lift up reverse in theory will not work (i.e You won't be able to enable reverse gear which would make it fail it's MOT - aside from being useless!).
