Sandals Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 My 2004 Blobeye comes with a pretty boring leather gearknob... it does the trick but want something a little nicer looking! So I bought this, thought it was unbranded but it's actually momo: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B006Y8BY0W/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Looked pretty universal, but unfortunately even the biggest size plastic adapter was too small, think I may need to file the plastic bit a little to make it fit. Point of the thread, does anyone have any other recommendations that they know would fit? Not looking for anything fancy, just something with a nice feel and decent weight... Thanks!

Gambit Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Not sure mate all the ones I've bought have fitted on with little effort :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandals Posted September 21, 2014 Author Share Posted September 21, 2014 I thought it would be little effort as well!! I'll look online specifically stating that they fit imprezas!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisD Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 When i purchased my 03 impreza the gear knob was a shiny black metal ball type thing, felt nice but didn't look great. decided to make a mario themed one for a laugh, it worked but looked a bit odd for the cars style. then purchased a fake momo one from eBay, it looked a bit better but i didn't like the feel, made the gear stick seem too long. painted my original one gloss red, no one but me seems to like it but it feels how i want it too :) so its staying.
