As the topic title suggests, my 6 speed manual gear knob leather is all flared down the bottom and looks very ordinary.

I have been to the only two trimmers we have in this little town and they have both told me that its to difficult for them.

Does anyone know somewhere that I could perhaps send my knob to to be re-leathered?

any help would be much appreciated.

cheers

thanks mate, but the one I want retrimmed is an FPV one, I also have the standard XR one as well.

I've asked Mal Wood about his aftermarket gear knob, maybe look into that - I've been through 3 factory gearknobs now and the leather doesn't last at all

stop rowing your box then pattsy...

yeah the factory leather ones are sh*t I am on my third fpv gear knob.. so I just pulled the leather off now and left it like that.. I would be interested in looking at mals aftermarket gear knob..

Lol, the one I have now hasn't lipped out, but it spins around. The stitched part is always facing a different direction when I get in my car!

Just watch it when the sun is out Geoff, they get bloody hot!

haha yeah I learnt my lesson with summer just gone got a nice shock after I left it in the sun all day and touched the gear knob lol
