Cupra Gear nob

[Scully]

I ordered the Cupra Gear nob. and would like to know what it looks like? any pictures available. ive seen pictures on the net. but i think that the european one.

 

[kriso]

You ordered it without seeing it first?

Im pretty sure it looks like this:

Didnt think there was any difference in the euro one..

 

[Scully]

yeah the euro one is very small nothing like that...

How much did you pay for it? Might want the part Number for that, if you like it when you get it on, can you post some pics.

i'm going to put my momo one on the ibiza when i get it, how do you take the standard knob off, it is just a case of pulling the bugger or is it more subtle..... i'm not good a suble so this should be fun

unclip the gaiter, lift it up, bend or cut the metal clip for the gearknob and off she comes

metal clip can be replaced with a cable tie when you want to sell the car and put it back to standard

ah rite, shouldn't be too difficult then should be fun when i collect the beast!

cheers matey

This one is just £35, but not sure if it will fit. It looks like the original Fr knob, but cleaner. Its for a Beetle Turbo.

 

[rashcupra]

thats ok ^^

 

[Scully]

I'll be getting the Cupra Gaitor, handbrake cover and vent switches. I'll post pics and guide, when i get them.

 

[dozza.13]

The beetle turbo 1 looks cool, nice and subtle!

 

[Aimez]

pics will be good, personally dont like the microphone style one either, i want the new fr once someone posted up a while ago dunno if it a uk one or a european, they get all the good stuff damn them!

 

[dozza.13]

The 1's in the 2007 model cupra's n FR's look ok but feel horrible, cant seat make something that feels nice on the palm of your hand???

 

[Aimez]

[dozza.13]
