basically managed to smash the 6 speed cavailer turbo gearknob i had on my corsa. bit of roll cage hit it.

what is a good and decent gearknob to replace it with? i cant find another calibra one sadly.

Time to go sCeNe Nic: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Pool-Ball-Gear-Knob-Black-No-8-Ball-Custom-Made_W0QQitemZ400046252017QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item5d249d5ff1

I have a Richbrook slant top one which is quite subtle. Has 5 gears etched on it though, so a bit useless for you. Also, being metal it's stupidly cold to hold this time of the year!

Richbrook are pretty solid, look good and alot less tacky than most.

demontweeks and other such sites stock them too.

I just have a standard 97-on one on mine. Easy to fit, just get the whole stick from the doner.

I've probably got a standard Corsa one if you want it, older one isn't as nice though.

aye as mine is the standard 97-on sport gearknob but with the later calibra turbo centre in it. (earlier ones were like an oval shape) later ones are round and you can flip the centre out of it.

ah now mine was the oval older one that i had out of a cavalier turbo (that engine kinda came out of in 2002) and i quite liked it. not so convinced on the rounder ones.

Leather 6speed Richbrook one is much nicer than the alloy one. Bit of a crap pic, but you get the idea.

The Momo Race Air one is quite nice too - the same as in MG's iirc too!
