What has everyone done about their gear lever gaiter?
I ask because mine does not reach up as far as the gearknob.
I have since replaced the konb with an auminium one but this has made even
more of the metal gearstick shaft visible.
I have noticed that on newer cars there is often a circular plastic thingie
around the shaft to which a leather gaiter is attached. has anybody done
this?
Replacement, aftermarket, gaiters aren't tall enough to reack the knob. I
have thought about shortening the gearstick, with a hacksaw, but I'm not
overly enamoured with the thought of cutting up my car.
None of this is aided by the rather unusual shape of the gearstick shaft.
What is wrong with a straight one?
