There is a gear knob on a polo near my scrappy in yeovil. Not back there till 4/5th jan. Can get it to you then? Unless you find one before hand?

My old G had a plastic gear nob but the one I have at the min has a leather one,
anyone manage to find a press photo of the interior. Would be interesting to see what was used off production

The stock G40 gear knob is just the normal plastic 5 speed. It was the same on both my G40s and the one I still have was a 1991 press car. Original gear gaiter is leatherette rather than real leather and tends to fall apart.
