WHEEEEY!

As for gear knobs, the best-looking and most suited ones are black leather-bound items with an aluminium cap, in a symmetrical bulb shape: these are very rare indeed but try to hunt one down with this style, you'll not regret it.

They also work with lift-reverse systems, such as found on the Gti-6.

I got a richbrook one that works fine, only problem is that its very tall which makes the gear throw seem very long.
