Title: Is this a Genuine Edition30 gearknob?
Post by: sundaydriver on 23 June 2010, 19:45
Been looking for an Edition30 gearknob for my mk6 for a while now.

Seen this one on ebay advertised as a genuine Edition30 gearknob but it doesnt look right to me.

Any opinions?

Could it be from an R32? The advert does say that (although it does mention the GTi too!)
