I read in a thread awhile back about fixing the surface cracking on the factory knobs. I have one I would like to fix, Any info would help.

He, he, he, she said "knobs", that's cool.
Uh, for clarification, are you referring to the centers on the dashboard knobs? The transluscent centers I mean. I just occurred to me that the crap they sell on TV to get rid of hairline scratches on glasses might work.
Just a thought, no experience with it, though.

sorry, I should have been more clear, the surface cracking on the shift knobs.

All you need is a buffing wheel, sometimes going over it with some 600 first if the cracks are real bad, then finish it off with some tripoli rouge and the buffing wheel.

Iamchappy,
Good suggestion. I will try something similar. I like the original shift knob and they do get pretty dull looking with age.
