Is there really a difference between the two knobs?

[Snowbear77]

Hey guys , I'm looking for a replacement for my gear shift knob, though I have found 2 similar knobs from ' jefferson ford' on ebay with a difference of $50. I have a 2014 xr6T 6 speed......and would of thought it doesn't really matter, but for the sake of Fiddy dollar, I have seen some real crazy differences bewtween the MK1 and MK2 FG'S......below are the links to the 2 auctions......cheers

bit hard to tell from ebay listings, realistically... both say "mk2" in their URL's so I'd just get the one that's cheaper, assuming the listing says it's in "as-new" condition or better.

One is chrome, the other isn't

Similar to how in BF, the XR's had an XR logo on the shifter and the ghia didn't but had a chrome trim, also the perforations in the leather were absent on the ghia (BF)
