Will momo gear nobs fit mk2's?

 

[craig87]

yeah i took mine off coz i didnt like it tho!

 

[Roelích]

Should do pal... Was gunna fit one to mine but I like the standard one very much.

Just a shame its not weighted enough.

 

[craig87]

i took mine off for the standard one its much better IMO!

 

[Roelích]

I may afix weights to it though...

 

[Czechboy]

What standard ones do you have?? The one that was on mine was absolutely horrid and also a very weird shape,lol. any gear knob (apart from the anodized blue one) looked better then the standard one. Best thing to do is chop down the actual gearstick by about 50mm, then get a nice and simple satin finish ball gearknob from Richmond and hey presto, it already feels like you've installed a short shift

i love the shape of the original!! I went from a ball shaped one n it felt horrible!

I would like to cut the gearstick down but because of the thread needed for the original gaiter i prob wont be able to do this!

mk4 golf GTi ones look good.

Czech, how do you shorten the gearstick rod? is it as simple as it sounds...that could make a major styling change!

Well it goes something along the lines of:

Select 3rd
Hack away for 2 mins with a hacksaw
Attach new gearknob and secure using grub screws

The technical approach, I like it!

I get the feeling i am being accused of bringing the forums into disrepute

Hopefully it will work, but i am worried the lever will be so short that i will have to bend down to shift!! hahaha

 

[craig87]

that is the exact gearknob i had that is now sitting under my stairs i hate it!! Its a bit worn on the top as well!
