Good deals on ebay

MisterTee · 12th June 2008, 18:35

Hello all,

I've just ordered a new type r gear knob (I prefer these to the standard civic) for £35 delivered! Its from the states but the seller ships to the UK.

This shop is hidden away on ebay but there are some goodies on it:

eBay Store - bestjdmparts: Decal, Accessories, Shift Knob

Hope this helps.

how easy is it to fit and replace?

MisterTee · 12th June 2008, 20:29

I believe its a simple unscrew, and then screw the new one on.

f.ss.t · 12th June 2008, 23:28

yes, very easy to fit, just checked out that site, i think its a ripoff to be fair!

Its arrived and its perfect, not bad for £35. Unfortunately the gaiter I had now doesn't fit and I have to get another one. I don't like it without a gaiter, its like tugging on a daleks eye everytime I change gear.

Rip off Britain?

unknownsoldier, thats the same seller and part I got.

It is the gear knob from the last civic though, but its still fits and I like it. I really don't know why they skimped on the gear stick on the non type R civic.

Unknownsoldier · 21st June 2008, 21:30

I think it looks so much nicer than the faux leatherette thing we get, they should have done the same stick and knob for the R & S as the S is a sporty car.

Does it lower your stick much overall??????

MisterTee · 22nd June 2008, 16:42

It lowers it by about an inch, nothing too bad.

Unknownsoldier · 23rd June 2008, 08:08

Nice

Right, now it's a toss up:

BMW Vauxhall Mini Kia Toyota Iron Cross Shift Gear Knob on eBay, also Gearstick Handbrake Custom'n, Interior Styling, Car Tuning Styling, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 27-Jun-08 20:45:00 BST)

eBay Motors: GENUINE Aluminum 6 SPEED Shift Knob for Civic Si S2000 (item 360061854331 end time Jul-14-08 18:09:21 PDT)

I like them both........but think no.1 may be impracticle?
