A problem with my knob

Post by swiss »

Hey, me again. This time I've got a problem with my knob. There's a hole in the end.

I've attached a picture of my knob for you all to see. Please take a moment to look at my knob.

OK, knob jokes aside for a moment... the indicator bit was broke when I got the car. Never seen the individual bit on eBay... am I looking a whole new gear knob or can I get the replacement plastic bit off Pug or someone? That servicebox thing just confused the hell out of me...


Hehehe... "knob"

Your knob can be fixed Swiss! :cheesy:
That top bit just sticks on; grab one from a breakers as your easiest option.

Hmm, I could swing past Silverlake on Friday... only trouble is I tend to go in with a shopping trolley and just load up. It's actually pretty :( to see all those dead 406s...

By all accounts you must pull on the knob end, not twist it :oops:
