Lotus Elan Central

I'd like a stock gearknob that isn't as ratty as mine.

I tried a shiny Elise sperical one - it doesn't fit, and probably wouldn't suit my interior anyway.

Royal leather gear knob Elise Elan on E.Bay .Or see removel of gear knob .£14.99 inc PP. Looks good . Andy&Max

Yeah, I quite like those, but I'd really like a proper one......

SJ's sell the stock leather gear knob for about 40 GBP +vat, and a Momo one for about 33 GBP. Don't know how much you're wanting to pay.

Do they, by gum? I didn't think they had any 'real ones' in stock?

And £50.00 (shipped and Vatted) seems just a tad more than I'd really want to pay.......

There is a Momo one that looks the same, but I'd rather have the real thing.

thought of getting it recovered?
the leather would cost nowt so it'll be a time thing......maybe a couple of hours
just a thought

So did I some months ago.

Still haven't got one though !

I could use a couple...

I wonder how many Lotus have in stock..

I can see a plan forming

I've been after one since i got the car!

I'll do some reseach...

I'll try for under £30, be it OEM or GM, new or yours repaired. (Identical thou)

Start an intrest list subject to all the usual stuff. If it goes ahead I think a Kind mod will relocate this to a new home.

Good lad, Speckers!

1: Jackonicko. Definite at anything less than £35 + P&P

2: Pinky - would need an outright buy as no original one to re-cover

At last, a group buy I can join !

An Update...

I've managed to locate some OEM Gear Knobs

I've got to Liase Monday for a price... I'm aiming for 10 people...

Blimey !! That was quick. Well done Mr Specky

(I've got to Liase Monday for a price... I'm aiming for 10 people...)

Any progress on this one Specky ?

Yes and no...

I went to vauxhall and they told me the gear knob was off a Carlton, but I think they may be mistaken...

The search still continues...

Lotus have squillions...

They buy them in...

but they are selling on adverage two to three a month... So that means they won't be in the next aftersales in the middle of the year...

I'm sending a gearknob to Mel at Hethel next week to see what they can do

Paul Matty has some in stock, approx £40 + Vat
