Title: Trim and clip around gaiter
Post by: razputin on 08 June 2010, 10:50

If anybody has replaced their leather gaiter then you'll probably know what I'm talking about.

When you unclip the gaiter, it is stapled to a black trim piece the same shape as the gear knob opening.
Mine has snapped. Know what the part is called? Or where I can get one?

Hate going to the dealers here in NI as they are forever ordering the wrong parts.

Cheers

It's a plastic chrome effect one I have but it's the other piece underneath that isn't visible I'm after.
The one I had lost some of it's regidity and became too flexible and snapped.

Appreciate the offer though.
