Title: I'm after a new knob....
Post by: apollo13 on December 14, 2010, 04:00:34 pm

Hi all,

Well only owning a lowly GT TDI my gear knob is pretty boring and generally letting my interior down.

Any suggestions on any others that will fit will be gratefully received  :drinking:

I think the edition 30 has a pretty nice gear knob and I think ecstuning in the states are selling them for 250 USD. Don't know if thats a decent price but it's on my ever growing mods list.

Thanks for the suggestion guys,

I assume the ED30 has the red stitching? Won't really go with anything else in the interior. I'm not a fan of the 'golfball' or the forge on either I'm afraid.  :sad1:

I'd like to keep it VAG really, I'll have a look around and see whats about, someone mentioned the MK6 R knob so I'll have to check that out.

Any other suggestions welcome though.   :drinking:
