Yeah, mine's no where near that bright

... Or pink

Think mine could do with a replacement ring as well (the bit that lights up) as it looks like mine has been stabbed with the keys a few too many times.

My lug is completely missing, so I'd have to make up a whole new bracket to attach to the glove box. Not really spent much time looking at it, but it looks like something has poohed in it anyway, so I wouldn't mind just getting new one

And my new knob arrived yesterday. It wasn't advertised as a Momo (didn't have those markings on the picture either), and I highly expect it's a replica if it is even supposed to resemble a Momo knob, but it's perfect either way

...

It's about 50mm in diameter which is perfect. The existing one was way too small for my manly hands...

And look at the box it came in!!! That was worth the £13.96 alone!

And there's a nice weight to it...

Compared to...

Still half the weight of a Skunk2 jobby, but it does make shifting noticably smoother.

Me handling my knobs...

And knob-on!...

can you remove the ring and polish it with brasso or autosol?

Cheers LD, I think that's the nicest thing anyone's ever said to me on here before

I tried removing it. I could get one side of it out, but the other wouldn't come out. Because of all the key stabbings it's been weakened, so would have broken if I'd kept at it. Because that wasn't the main task of the day I just put it all back together, but I'll sort it eventually

Big black knob

Couple of quick crap pics, but the rims are on

...

EDIT: Also interesting to know that 4 wheels fit perfectly in the boot (I was surprised!) ...

How did you manage that?! I can only just get two wheels in mine

Edit: How rude! Wheels look good btw

gonna hit it with a stick and make it lower yet or what?

I think it needs it, but I need to analyse some of the local speed bumps to bumper height first
