Daddyslaphead 0 Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 I'd really like to replace the gear shift knob for something a bit nicer in leather. I've trawled eBay and to be honest most of what's on there doesn't really appeal. I'm looking for a plain black leather knob so I was wondering what others on here have got?Also I have a leather gaiter to fit. It seems like decent quality and will certainly look better than the OEM cheap & nasty vinyl cover. Last night I destapled the old cover so now I have a nice bare plastic frame to attach the new gaiter to. I hope to finish the job tonight but I noticed that the replacement leather gaiter material is a little thicker than the vinyl crappy one. Is this likely to be an issue? The replacement I have is model specific so in theory it shouldn't be a problem but does anyone have any experience of this? Will the slightly thicker material prevent the frame from sitting correctly in the aperture?DSH Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iMike 1 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I've just changed the gaiter on mine to a genuine leather one, also i got the genuine Aygo leather gear knob with the stitching looks and feels so much better than the original rubber one.http://www.burrowstoyotaparts.co.uk/aygo-black-leather-gear-knob-pz430-90171-cd-i671.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
