can't see why it would. if you're fittin an "after market" gear knob, you'll have several size rubber bungs to fit in the metal "stick", then pop on the gear knob and tighten the alens up (mine on escort had 1, which meant it kept coming loose - kept allen key in glove box. My step mums on Primera was tighted with 3 and never cam loose)

iv got a momo one quite expensive no pics of it though, but the stupid gaitor is now not long enough so need one of them.
Iv heard of people sawing it but if i sold the car and had to put the standard one on it wouldnt fit again, would never leave it in the car it is too nice!

that Seat Sport one is well nice, where did you get that from? And how did you fit it? I hacked away the old one in my Megane but was the only 'mod' I've seriously regretted.

picked it up from ebay for about 25 quid ... and it was a royal pain in the ass to fit due to the collar that clamps around the leather gaiter being a bit too small - had to really use BFI and mole grips to get it to lock properly.
