Jamie, will these fit the earlier shaft for a 901/911 gearbox? Cheers, Steve
Hi Steve,
I don't know if they're they same thickness as a 915 shifter.
Anyone else know?

Jamie can I get one of these? If I'm not too late I'd like one please.
I was just wondering how the hell I'd fit it to a G50 and then read my earlier post. Don't know who the hell wrote it but it sounds like a good idea. Anyway - deffo want one if poss
Cheers

Great news, thanks!jamie wrote:Good news guys - I finally have in front of me another batch of knobs. The light/dark stripes are different to last time meaning the knobs are darker overall than the first lot. They look fantastic.
Below are names from this thread who expressed interest and therefore get first refusal. PM me if still interested, I'll reply with PayPal details...

Whoa. Kewl.
Pm on the way. Yes please under whatever circumstance.
Can I ask, can those things be adapted to fit a wevo shifter as well?

Bert - have a look at my comments on the G50 box - it's just a guess but I reckon it will work.
Which Wevo 'shaft' will you be having sir? the classic? - all depends how the knob fits on

No, this one. I think it will look ace with the wooden gearknob.sladey wrote:Which Wevo 'shaft' will you be having sir? the classic? - all depends how the knob fits on

Depends on how thick the spindle is that the existing knob goes onto - if it's not too thick you could thread the outside of that with a die, and then tap a corresponding hole in the bottom of the knob (probably after filling whatever hole's there already with some sort of resin)
Just a suggestion

Bert, have a look at their proposed fixing on this mazda site - that's the sort of thing I'm talking about

BTW Jamie - do you (or anyone else for that matter) have any pics of the original knobs? I'd be interested to see how they've weathered. I've tried searching but today Google was not my friend
