This vendor on Ebay is selling gear shift knobs for the 914. The only problem is the shift pattern is wrong! Yea, I'll take a couple. I also will take a new tranny when I ram it into reverse when I think it is first!

They just aren't marketing it correctly. It's actually a theft deterrent shift knob!

I also bought a shift pattern shift knob from mikey914, so other drivers would know the shift pattern. |

Well, on top of the wrong shift pattern of that knob, it's also awfully ugly!
