D13 HPD 95 Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 i should think so, as its just a grub screw that holds them on aint it?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiestaZpower Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 My experiences say 95% sure it won't fit a mk7 .. Could be wrong though I had looked at various options , I went to my local Halfords and tried a few ones on in the car park. Lots of fits most models of ford ones but none fit my mk7.. .. But you could make it fit if - you really wanted to..., In the end I went for a ford one before I took the whole thing out and put in a mountune one in .., Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRog Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Have you looked into a short shift stick? someone on here put one in, don't think it was that expensive for what you get, it looked the dogs as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M4RC Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Don't see why not, there all a pretty standard size especially the richbrook ones. Wouldn't bother with a short shifter though, £119 for a 15% less shift! not worth it in my eyes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiestaZpower Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 unscrewing your gear knob off and popping on a universal one on with Allen grub screws is not too good IMO from a safety point of view ... I remember doing that on my last car and having to carry around an Allen key in the glove compartment so I could pull over and tighten it up every so often ... Went back to the standard one a month later - looks awesome though ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshFordFan Posted March 11, 2014 Author Share Posted March 11, 2014 Came today and fitted dead simple... Remove surrounding trim Unscrew knob Unclip retaining collar Screw on new Knob Replace trim Still need to tidy gaiter where it meets knob but looks 100% better already Very pleased with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
