knob change....
« on: 30 June 2009, 10:41 »
Right thi is going to sound really stupid so i am prepared for a battering!!!

How do i change the gear knob, cos when i undo it the whole stick comes loose, im used to the top coming off on its own so this was a bit of a shock!

Basically i prefer a really stubby gear knob (lol again awaiting abuse!!!!)

Any ideas?......
