Xantia gearknob wanted

Post by mirafioriman »

Hi,

I'm in need of a gear knob for my series 1 Xantia 1.9 diesel.

I've got an exclusive one somewhere but I can't find it.

I'd be interested in an exclusive one or a standard one.

Thanks. The old girl now has her seats and carpets back in so we're now driving a car not a builders van!

Just yank it upwards is the common advice on here although i've not tried it myself [WINKING FACE]

Mine just pops out with a small bit of effort suprisingly, it looks the same as a mk1 saxo vtr one i aquired years ago so might not be original.

Later ones i think had a plastic sleeve over the gearstick that the knob slid onto
