berg Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Probably a stupid question... My car has an aftermarket gearknob, the top of the leather gaiter is wider than the bottom of the gear knob and is all loose and unsucure, bugging me as it looks pretty crap! Im guessing from factory it had some sort of collar or something to secure the gaiter to the gearknob Is the bit im missing part of the standard gear knob or has it been removed from my gaiter? Can i buy this part from anywhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berg Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 Should have a black plastic collar mate. Thought so, is it a complete;y seperate part on its own or is it part of the knob or gaiter? Hoping i can buy one from somewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 It's separate mate. Not part of gaiter or the knob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay200bhp Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 you lift it for reverse fella its part of the shifter on six speed mt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 There is one on a 5 speed too, but its solid on the shifter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berg Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 Mines a 5 speed ill have to try and find one from somewhere. Another question i have (rather than starting a new thread) Does the front and rear washer jets run off the same motor? My fronts had all the tubing removed (carbon bonnet previously on the car) so ive fitted all the tubing back on, the rear washer works fine now but there is no noise at all when i try to use the fronts Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
