Illuminated gear knobs, sill scuff plates anyone?

HOW MUCH!!!!! Is it worth it?

Well, considering the Interior Pack 2 is £300 (£250 on Titaniums cos they already have the interior mats), then it breaks down as approximately:

  • £65 Illuminated knob
  • £50 Interior mats
  • £185 for the Illuminated Sills and handbrake cover

I think I'd rather just buy the interior mats from http://www.fordpartsuk.com/ (about £20) and the knob for £65 and not pay the equivalent of £185 for the sills and handbrake cover when bought as the Interior Pack 2 :D

Now all I need is the FINIS (part no.) for the gearknob and that How-To guide that was promised earlier :ph34r:



Is that £65 from a local ford dealer? 86.75EUR on that website, including vat/tax (do we pay that if bought from Europe?)

65's alot for a knob even if it does have a red glow to it..

is there a plug there for the wiring then.... :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I wouldn't have thought so. The installation guide will probably entail wiring up the lights with the existing circuit for dashboard lights. I looked it up as a save money later on type option when buying the car, and decided it wasn't worth the hassle of installing myself, so added it as an extra. It's a shame that they don't allow you to look at the installation instructions before purchasing so you can see exactly what is required

shame i was'nt offered this as an option :angry::angry: offered everything else mind ....i might go back and have a word :lol::lol:

I would imagine a dealer might be kitted out to fit them retrospectively. It is well worth asking, you might even get a discount if you return to the dealer you purchased your car through

Shades? At night? :blink:

Looking at the gearstick is such a noobie thing to do! :lol:

I wanted the intrior pack but it seemed to be one more thing to hold up the delivery of the car so I decided against it!

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but I'm contemplating getting the interior pack 2 on my new car..

What are peoples thoughts/likes/dislikes?

My thoughts - it's £325 for some lighty-uppy things, handbrake cover and floor mats :P

Lol true, I have a mk7 illuminated gear knob at home but would have no idea how to fit it, so if anyone wants to buy a illuminated gear knob let me know :P

Im getting a Titanium so its only £275 if that makes it any more justifiable lol

I fityed mine. Il fit yoirs for you if you want. Tajes less than 10mins

Cheers Fordpartsman, I'll let you know about that as it'll depend on the build time if I add on the interior pack, as I have heard adding the interior pack 2 can add on lengthy amounts of time to the build..but shall wait and see..

Thanks for the offer though! Are you at work saturday? Come and have a look at your ZS leather interior at some point?

nah im not working, got a wedding, will be in the sat after, or can meet up one evening if you want and you can look at it then

Yes, its worth, it, the little details make the car feel more special

When I saw the thread title I expected something tacky but those are really nice, the gear knob especially.
