Hiya,
did the VR6 or the 16v come with a leather steering wheel (airbag wheel) and leather gear knob? If so, does anyone have the part no's and approximate cost for these please?
Thanks in advance
-
The only part of my interior that is leather is the gear stick surround. The gear knob and steering wheel are plastic. Can post some pics if needed to show you what i mean?

I think most VR6s came with Leather steering wheels, but all gti's except with leather interior came with standard wheels and gear sticks.? But i would guess it was all optional so there are all kinds of combinations out there. Who knows.
Anyway, the part nos for the bits are as follows:
Leather steering wheel (airbag models) exc. airbag? ?1HO 419 091 AQ 01C? ?253.94
Leather gear knob and boot 1HO 711 118 M 1BX ?104.59
There are a few options for the gear knob but i think this is the standard leather one. Also the pricing module on my copy of ETKA is out of date, so don't take those prices as being correct.
I have seen quite a few leather steering wheels on ebay recently so keep your eye out there.

Thanks for that, at those prices it looks like eBay it is

HI i may be willing to swop my leather gear knob / surround for whatever you have, obviously depending on what it is you have to offer in return.
Here is some pics so you can see what I am offering.

Mines the std, almost vulcanised rubber, version. Unless thats what you're after?
-
I am after something that will enable me to have a golf ball gear knob, not sure exactly what i will need.
-
Go on ebay and get yourself a MOMO wheel and knob. Might seem like a lot of money now but when you get them on the car you wont regret it .
;D ;D ;D

Mr Wotto - you need the Aniversary stuff, That's got a golf ball gear knob, and a nice leather gaiter, i think it has red stitching though.? If not get a VR6 highline gaiter, that is nice black leather and finishes before the knob so that the Walnut knobs could be screwed onto the gear lever.?

My Highline with momo knob, but the original gaiter. (sorry about the picture, it was taken to show the cd box, but you get the idea..)

I think the anniversary gearknob with VR6 gaitor would look pretty nice. Might even do the door handles in chrome too just to add to it.
Is the top of the anni gear knob leather or painted metal??

Just a plastic insert.
