Look great 👍 I’ve not been able to leave the drive with mine so far,  if she’s ready for when it’s ok to head for a proper drive!

Made a new knob.  EDIT: need to get the picture not showing fixed.  Please stand by...

Let's try that again....

So I made a new knob, I polished that knob very well...  Don't know anything about woodworking and I don't have a lathe, but I do have a 3d printer 🤓.

So solid printed the insert, including the M12x1.75 thread as a solid part; to engage reverse is just like OEM.  What's not like OEM: bigger diameter, sits higher up, warmer, ... and to top it all off: when I'm making "brum brum" noises I now think I am in a Carrera GT!  (need to make the noises as the car is hibernating).

Got bored; so here goes my attempt.  Pretty chav about it (and taste is a personal thing).

I have been wondering about a 917 style gear knob - just like the look. Does the lighter material change the feel of this shift?
