Anyone know of anywhere I could buy a new leather gaiter for my F? I quite fancy a red one, and maybe a new red/silver knob too, gearstick knob that is.

Mark

I'm sure Lee/Nathan (323frock) bought a red gaiter with a red knob too - hunt them down and give em a 'PM'

Hey that's 3 in a row You're on fire!
Cheers Stu - I'll drop them a line

I know, on a roll tonight

mate, if you are at it, can you please find out from Lee/Nathan how to unscrew the knob? might be thinking of changing me too!
do u just need to keep turning the knob (the gear knob) anti-clockwise until it comes off??

Trying to think how I took mine off when I changed it - doesnt it just unscrew, with some effort

just screws off lol ... just be careful it may be tight, and it may try taking the original gaitor with it .. just keep pulling the original gaitor back and unscrew until it comes off in your hand

You're suffering from the same symptoms I had. I kept turning but the damn thing did not want to come off until I realised that it had fully unscrewed but the gaitor was holding it down

So

Turn it until you can actually lift it off the gear shifter stem. When this is possible, just prise the gaitor off the knob.

thx guys, just need to find a nice knob on ebay to buy now
