Gearknob pre fl with pics

Featured Replies

Hi Folk

I've got a ltd edition octavia and want to change the gearknob been looking about but was just wondering if anybody has changed gearknob and for what and have any pics .

Cheers whoosh

Some people change to the S line hear knobs. They are shorter and perforated like the steering wheel. When I get around to buying one I will be getting the audi one.

Must admit the octavia mk3 looks the part:)

Ive just won a mk4 golf r32 gearknob & gaiter on the dreaded ebay.........lets hope it fits my octy!  :blush:

I must admit it's the worst part of the car been thinking about an sline one or a forge

Had another idea I've bought two key fob Vrs badges and will sink one of them into the silver piece then remove it and wrap in gloss black refit badge and then refit to gear knob .

Well that's the plan much cheaper than a new one

Cheers whoosh

Shame as need a new gearknob :(

Mine is ok,just fancied a change..........will have to wait now.......i fitted LED's to my number plate lights & sidelights & my o/s headlight release mechanism was seized solid (never been out in 5 years) & i broke it trying to get the headlight out so new mounting bracket required now.  :blush:

How do you get that centre section out? the foil is coming off mine, was looking at giving it a light paint or replace.

Hi

I just used a small flat bladed electrical screwdriver and went in between the leather and centre and popped it out at the top and bottom

The centre part has two tabs either side top and bottom that slide into slots on the leather part of the gearknob

Cheers whoosh
