I want to ditch the standard plastic gear lever knob and get a nice ally one. Can anyone advise whats available?
I see RT do one but there's no picture in the catalogue
Anyone got a photo? Any other contenders anywhere? The knob must have the 5 & reverse logo on top.
Cheers

Halfrauds do a momo range and they are dead easy to fit. This is what I fitted to mine - matched the chrome dial bezels well and felt nice, but no logo.

ah, just spotted you want alloy - this is shiny chrome!

Gee - you Guys were quick getting back with the knob advice
Just tried Karls site, but can't access it at the mo for some reason.
Knob must have the gear layout on top, in case I forget where reverse is
Dicky - Does the company you are refering to begin with hell 4 leather?, if so, I looked on their site earlier and could only see those stick shaped jobbies. I want traditional knobby shape one

Got this one from MotorWorld catalouge in-store, £25
Nice combination - did you get the handbrake handle from the same place?
The handbrake looks like the Leven one, as I've got one too match my alloy snooker ball type, and yes they do get hot in summer and cold in the winter, but still a joy too use
Not seen any with the gear pattern on, but you may be able to get someone to etch it on for you ?
You might find Leven do a shiney knob as well ?

Leven got back to me - they don't do traditional knobby shape for Wedges and suggested I try the TVR factory via a main dealer
RT does them with the gear layout - need to see pic
Also if Bob (430SE) sees this, he's got one with the gear pattern on but I remember he had issue with the leather gaiter holding up? Maybe the PWD95 Motoworld type sorts it.

Cheeky Bu**er. It wasn't the knob I had trouble with, it was how to keep the gaiter up! I ended up glueing it higher than normal, but just like the picture in this thread.
French trip was fantastic. Great people to go with. The French loved the cars. Brought home 30 bottles of Champagne and 6 wine. Mercier thought it amusing to see how much a Wedge can carry
