Gear Gaiter

[breezer]

those with aftermarket gear gaiters, please recommend me one to buy! i have one on but its !Removed! and too loose and you can see down through the gap

[s0cks]

Can someone also post a "how to" on getting that damn gear leaver off. Is it like super-glued on?

[breezer]

gear leaver???

[s0cks]

Yer, sorry the gear stick handle - the standard boring grey one

[breezer]

you unscrew it off

[Moffmo]

LOL!!

The gear knob simply screws off

Breezer, get the leather one that waxacar sells, iv got it and i cant fault it myself!

[jaxx]

it looks tops and fits perfect

[breezer]

[s0cks]

you unscrew it off

No way!

I take it you have to be superman cus mine is stuck on solid.

[Kerby]

[vmail]

[knightrider]

[Moffmo]

[vmail]

[s0cks]

No, the grey handbrake stick handle thingy majob.

Woops, I said gear stick at first! That's easy to get off. I meant the handbrake lever handle :fishyface:

[Kerby]

lucky u i cant even get the gear knob off never mind the hand brake

[chrisb]

Can anyone tell me where i can get the chrome like gear stick surrond from!

iv seen someone on here with an aftermarket cover they will probably be along sometime!unless it slipped over the existing but would imagine that it would be too chunky!

[breezer]

to get handbrake one off you have to cut it off!!

and theres a chrome gear surround on eBay in germany, he uses paypal and will ship to UK

i think potn does one....

as you can see, the one on eBay is exactly the same!! and much cheaper!

Breezers right, you have to use a hack saw or something similar and litterally hack it off! Its a non reversible mod so make sure you are happy with your newly purchased alloy replacement as theres no going back!

Mine took a good 15 mins of gentle hacking before i destroyed it!

lukily my simoni racing replacement looks the business and fits well

Co-incidence or not? I just made a new gaitor over the weekend. A bit of vinyl and a sewing machine is a lot cheaper than forking out the cash for one ...

[vmail]

what time is it in Australia

[Sp33dY]

We are GMT +10 ... so its about 10am Tuesday morning right now.

[vmail]

"Available between 10am-6pm Australian Eastern Standard time, Monday to Friday "

and they are not opened yet, ARGH, dont like waking up early

[Moffmo]

ahhhhh the handbrake is a different story!!!

My neighbour saw me hacking away at the hand brake, and he sed noooo, you do this, Started twisting it and it came off!

now thats strength!

( I loosened it for him ;) )

[clarky]

Going to be attacking my handbrake cover over the weekend - what kind of alloy ones have you guys got?

Its weird the t-sport has a really nice gear lever and a really naff handbrake!
