Hi,
Not sure if this has been said already, or not, but I never really like the shiny black plastic "ball" type gear knob as comes standard on fiat 500 ( well, lounge model anyway)...so I went about looking for a replacement fiat one, and wasn't impressed with what was about, particularly as mines a 6speed twin air 105.
Didn't really want to go aftermarket, ...but then found this one one eBay, and decided to give it a punt.
When it arrived (albeit from Poland...but still arrived super quick) I was genuinely surprised, pleasantly so, by its quality, real leather, chrome ring to the top, and it's illuminated too! There's a choice of colour which must be specified at ordering stage.
I went for orange to blend in with the car, and the knob just fits in perfect with everything in my car interior.
Finding a way of getting the wiring down the gear stick was a head scratcher, which I managed in the end.
Anyone looking for a nice gear knob, I'd highly recommend this one...I'm not the seller, or affiliated with the seller..just wanted to pass on the info to anyone interested!
The pic doesn't show the illumination that well as I was in daylight, but in the dark, it's lovely!
