I'm looking to go for a red stitched theme in my r32 to match the red paint so how much can I get the handbrake cover dsg shifter and mfsw dsg for either second hand in good condition or from the dealers
-
I would look in the for sale section for an ED30 DSG shifter SteveP is selling one, all you will need is the leather and the damaged parts can be replace with your current ones. :happy2:
-
I have done all mine in red and paid a lot for it, your best method is to just get the stitching re done on what you already have. I bought a ED 30 DSG golf ball knob then just swapped my original knob (ooer ) back on. Then bought a ED30 hand brake cover, as said far cheaper to get your restitched.

The steering wheel will be a problem as the place i went to cant restitch a wheel all they could do is go over what was there, well they could but said the cost would be a lot as it is very labour intensive to do from scratch. So mine got done with red and white. :happy2:

How much did u pay for the hand brake cover and shifter if you don't mind me asking I would get the stitching redone on them but they are looking a bit worn don't know how the cars only done 33000
-
Did I sell you that handbrake cover TC?
Stu, give Mike at MJ interiors a call and ask how much they would charge.
Look in my build thread to see the level of work he does, bet he could sort you out in a day or so to get that sort of work done.
-
That steering wheels is really nice touch :happy2:
-
I'm looking to replace the parts in my car as the steering wheel has marks on it where hand controls were clamped onto it by a previous owner the shifter an the handbrake are not in the best condition either so restitching is not really an option or I would get that done when I get my recaros retrimmed in leather with red stitching so if somebody can give me a rough idea what these parts would cost new and what they go for second hand in good condition
-
I got a ed30 dsg shifter and handbrake lever on the bay for something like £53 (ish). :pomppomp:
-
I remember somebody had a MFSW for sale and it had red stitching added. Can't remember for the life of me who it was. He sold Chris his engine cover I think.
-
As I mentioned in my original post Someone is selling an ED30 DSG gear stick in the for sale section you can use the leather part off of that.
-
Its not just the leather bit i need i need a new gear knob with less wear on it plus i wouldnt pay 80 to just use the leather bit

Stu i am away at the minute, will be back home for the weekend, i am sure i have a nearly new unmarked DSG knoooob sitting in the garage, i just cant remember quite what it is, because i think i have a Mk6 one in mine, which i swapped with PG because he wanted the golf ball bit off the ed 30 one i bought. to replace mine. :rolleye:
I hope thats crystal clear. :laugh: If all the bits are there you can have it for £40 :happy2:
-
So is it the golf ball style one or have u swapped that with yours or something sorry I got lost a bit there lol but should take it for 40 if it's the golf ball style
-
Not to sure what i have left in the garage :laugh: i think it is just a newish standard GTI knob and surround. :happy2:
-
With red stitching
-
No just plain black, but as i mentioned at the start, a trim place or upholsterer would swap the stitch for little moniez. :happy2:
-
sorry i would rather buy one with the red stitching you mentioned something about the mk 6 one that has red stitching how much are they from dealers are they cheaper than the edition 30 one
-
Guys I brought these off eBay a while ago. Are they not standard on the ED30

they are standard on the edition 30 but i have an r32 and i want red stitched parts becasue im gonna get my seats retrimmed in leather with red stitching well eventually lol thought it would be better to source these parts first so that the red stitching could be matched to the parts

fair one mate , it will look great :-)
-
Really mate, just call a local upholsterer if you want it doing, to put red stitching on you will literally be looking at about £20 on the gaitor.
-
Take a look on the bay for handbrake gaitors and gear gaitors both manual & dsg are available in various
coloured stitching .
" Top Gaiters Boots " is the shop and the sellers name is " topgaiters "
May be of interest - hopefully :smiley:

That doesn't look right to me, is it just the gaitor that you bought off ebay? Just that the leather part should be underneath the circular part of the knob, but yours looks to be going over it (if that makes sense)
