Nice knob dude!

st. wheel from 1007, straight swop (apart that re-trimmed in black as they are all navy blue ) and looks like airbag will connect just fine as connector exact same but just in case to avoid explosions have fitted resistors. gear knob is ford c/s max really better quality then pug's

Hmmm, maybe a suitable knob for Eric?

Pug 6 speed knobs are hard to find - this looks lovely and blends in too....

Really clever, neat mods - like this

And me? My knob is really worn and needs replacing...
Saw someone on facebook do the 1007 wheel upgrade... Personally I'm not keen, but I do like that knob.

I like the wheel, but not so keen on the knob.

Have you fiited a 6-speed box, steven?

Makes sense, but the sooner you fit the 'box, the sooner you get the benefits....
Here's another way of looking at it - if the new clutch / flywheel will last longer than your period of ownership and you're definitely going to do it anyway, you don't really gain anything from waiting

This might be totally inappropriate, but Eric may I ask about your knob? Being a 6 speed gearbox, do you have push up reverse like on my standard Exec? Just interested in the lay out of your gear selections, also - who fitted the gearbox for you and how much did you get the box for? I'm interested in doing it for fuel economy reasons.

Would you be able/interested to do conversion? It will be done in the garage anyway so I would rather pay someone who knows what he's doing. Cheers

I didn't do it myself - managed to persuaded our resident guru, jasper5, (who's in Accrington). 300 mle round trip for me, but well worth it.
