Title: Are our gearknobs different?
Post by: Dave_IOW on 16 January 2010, 22:14
Well, need to buy a new one, old one is rough round the top bit and just had a look on the bay though and seen this

Quote
(We have fitted these to most of the vw range, golf mk1 2 3 (will not fit mk4) mk5, new beetle, old beetle, T2, T3, T4 Van, Seat Leon Audi etc).

So i take it we have different size shaft or something? Wouldn't mind something like this but dont want to pay anywhere near this price, can anyone find anything similar for less money?  :evil:

Haha, not even worth bothering with, most people destroy everything left worth anything before they scrap it anyway  :sad:

We lucky to get a VW in there, let alone a GTI  :cry:
