rtbiscuit Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Got all excited today when i got home from work, not because i had to pay £15 customs charges, but because i could finally go and collect and fit my Nismo gear Knob. Thanks to the Raffle that the Chilli's ran i was able to purchase my lovely new gear knob with my prize. and it wouldn't have been possible without the help of Adam at Z1 auto in the US. he sourced and supplied me with my perfect knob. i'd been eyeing them up since i had joined but couldn't stomach the high price tag, but thanks to adam and the chillis i was able to get the Nismo Titanium Gear knob. at the same time i also fitted the new gaiters i got from redlinegoods.com these are amazing quality and really well finished and a bargain at the same time. leather quality is so much better than the cheap vinyl cloth that nissan used. so here are the pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekona Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Looks good, but then I would say that seeing as how you copied the exact same gaitors from my car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I also have the exact same gaitors! I've have the gearknob one fitted for over 2 years and it's still perfect. Excellent little touch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Nice one bud. Titanium, mmmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 not taken it out for a drive yet to test it out, but it does feel nice in the hand. makes a big difference to the inside. just tie's it all together now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotrain69 Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 that titanium gear knob is very nice and the new gaitor looks good as well. i've recently changed gear knob and gaitor too and was really happy with results. went for black nismo aluminium gear knob and red gaitor. just need to do something about the gear surround now!

rtbiscuit Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 hotrain looks good, i must admit i want to change the headunit in my car for a nice screen, but its a toss up between that and getting the body kit on at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grantmitchell Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I noticed redline were doing handbrake gaitors - is it just a matter of tucking it down the gap?? Whats the official fitting method? Cheers Mart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Mart lift off the centre console put on gaitor, replace centre console. only when i fitted it i couldn't get the centre console off completely, so i pushed it doen the gaps, and got my ahnd in undrneath and pulled it into place.
