I got one brand new in the for sale section of the forum, £40 delivered.

Now got it in my mk2, lovely gear knob just hard to find.

Keep an eye out on the forums and on ebay and one will turn up.....

.....eventually!

Depends what you're after though.

The mk3 anni gearknob is a very cool OE gear knob.

Quaity is damn good aswell. Can't see pics of what you were suggesting as there was no link.

 Yeah, personnally l'm all about originality with my cars, using parts from other models or period items to give a original look with a bit of a twist and l love the fact that the anniversaty gear knob harks back to mk1 but is ahlf leather,/half ali to give a more up to date feel. Subtle.
