Just seeing if anyone has installed an aftermarket gear knob on their GTI other than the Wolfsburg model that I have seen a lot of. Looking at getting a Sparco knob and wondering how much of a pain in the ass it will be to install and secure the boot etc. Any help would be great cheers

You can see what I've installed on this page.

I've got some other close up photos of the attachment that I'll try and find

Here it is although the quality of photo is rather poor.
The knob is glued into the top section of the top stainless steel piece, which in turn is attached the the gear lever shaft. The lower stainless steel section slides up the bottom of the top stainless steel piece to hold the gaiter and is then tightened against the lower section with its own grub screws.
