Lol, I wonder how long this thread will last before a mod decides to edit the name or something :P

Got a bit of girth on that knob haven't you? :') just go to the dealer and slip the knob you want out on the sly.. Problem solved

Seeing as it's a work car that must mean a lot of people have handled your knob?

Has it got the same sized shaft as your current knob or is it an upgrade in terms of length too? :')

Jeez, this topic is below the belt :P I'll get my coat...

That's a dusty knob for all the use it gets! Does it fit well into your hand then?

It looks almost identical to my knob. Though I do like to keep mine cleaner

Regarding the numbers on the tip, does it intentionally end at 5 or did somebody rub one off?

Just to keep it clean and actually answer the original question-

Is your current gearknob the same style but with the silver insert?

You can get the different inserts here-

If you don't have that style of knob at present I have a spare one with a bit of wear on the chrome band around the insert that you can have for posting price (say a fiver?) and you can get one of the inserts I've listed to replace the worn part.

If you're interested then contact me via P/M to make arrangements.

I'd advise you use a vice and a rubber mallet in order to reattach the fitting collar that holds the gaiter to the knob as it is a tough job to refit properly.

If you really want to go flash there are real carbon fibre inserts that glue in instead of the original inserts and you can customise them as you see fit-
