its only available in red its not designed for a honda its for german cars so its a bit more involved than a simple unscrew and screw on , i am not 100% happy with the fit need to do some more fettling so have removed it for now , could do with a spare gearstick to fettle if anyone has one they wish to sell

quick update after much internet searching i have found this knob

Image[/URL]

which has a fitting thread which is 12mm unlike hondas 10mm so i took the brave choice to cut the 10mm thread off i also choose to shorten the shaft a little , i then found out the gearstick steel shaft is a tube i then got a shanked 12mm bolt cut the head off machined the shank down to fit in the tube welded it round and hey presto my new knob simply screws right on

heres how she looks at night very pleased with my new knob :lol:
