Morning all.

If one of you could confirm the thread you would need and the gear pattern for the top I could look at this for you.

Cheers. Lee.

Ps The thread i have on my S is a standard ford M10 1.5mm, i believe this is consistent across the range unless a mod has been made... as for the gate pattern and flat top of the Chim and Griff style ball this is a must.. ;-)

I seem to have disappeared from the knob list! Still interested though (reverse up to the left on the V8S). Cheers.

Will ensure you are included....

Gents

To confirm we have 18 now but still not enough to make is commercially viable unless you all want to pay a slight premium... i'll leave this post open and keep and eye and when the numbers increase i will confirm the production.

In the meantime, LEET350c and i are in conversation about a possible alternative.. i will keep you posted...

Cheers Rich

Apologies for the delay Gents, I have been taking behind the scenes and the manufacturer is about to start on a prototype gear knob based on our spec, which he will send to me in the near future. When he does I'll post ia picture of it and ask for final numbers. We can then go ahead and order.

Thanks for the patience.

Cheers Rich

Ps he will the start investigating the design of the other items we have requested as well once this is out of the way..

[Knowler]

Hi,

Both noted and added to the list...

Just waiting on Lee to send me the prototype and we'll be very near...

Watch this space

[Knowler]

Trev - Noted and added...

QUICK UPDATE: First 10 have been made and are currently being etched.. will post a picture as soon as i get them... I'll offer them up in order of request to ensure fairness if that's OK with everyone but you shouldnt have to wait long in any case.. currently the cost is roughly around what we had estimated..

Agent-Okra of the TVRCC has expresed an interest in a gear knob as well.

Great to hear it's progressing!
Gary

Was he in the new Bond Movie??? ;-)

Noted and not a problem...

[Knowler]

Gentlemen, prepare yourselves... Xmas has come early...

Attached are the pictures of the OEM style Aluminum gear knob we promised with the S Series etched gate pattern... The one Lee has sent me fits perfect even to the depth of thread.. look fantastic and is as good if not better quality than the originals!! (Great Job Lee).

So as stated earlier, please confirm that you are still interested and wish to purchase one, we have 10 ready to and Lee is currently working on more as we speak. Price will be £25 + p&p... you wont be dissapointed.... first ten to pay gets those but dont worry the rest will be along very shortly....

Cheers Rich....

[Knowler]

Here's another one

[Knowler]

And a final one.. sorry about the haze...

[Knowler]

Great! Will drop the list out shortly to confirm what i had... but your both on the list and both the first two lucky recipients!!

As for payment, i am assuming most if not all have Paypal so probably safer for all if we do it through that means.. and via a personal payment ;-) I'll double check this and will come back asap...

Your in the top ten so i'll set one aside for you...

Cheers R

[Knowler]

Lol!!

I think thats because we had a conversation about you didnt want one then did so i must have taken you off then just added you back the bottom today.. not a problem though you can have my proof one if the other 10 havent turned up by the time i post them all out... ;-) its perfect and unused before you worry...

Cheers mate....

Ok Chaps, Further update and PAYMENT

Spoke to the manufacturer (Lee/LeeB) and to save us all a lot of hassle and you guys any further expense he will take your orders and deal with the P&P... As such because i dont need to handle them and send them on again individually, I reckon your now looking at £25 incl P&P, one in the eye for the costly royal mail ;-)....

He has suggested that you simply contact him directly via PH (LeeB he is in this conversation string) or via [e-mail], he will then log you on a spreadsheet and send out the knob once you have paid.

His Payment Methods are:

PayPal
Bank transfer
Personal cheque

Once you contact Lee he will send you the appropriate details for your payment.

Hope this all makes sense and your all happy with the knobs.... please let me know when you have them and what you think I'd be interested to know after all this hard work.....

Mike,

I probably became flustered with the thoughts of your Anne Summers style handbrake lever!!!
