It's a good knob, nice and smooth :o haven't compare it side by side but this seems shorter. I must say, first impression when k open the box, I fall in love with it
I've cut 2 pieces of rubber from scrap boost pipe and use the underneath my tools to avoid damaging current knob and the gear stick.
Hope the weather is good for you Gareth. If the weather is bad, I might get some night shots
