    Gear Knob / Insert Replacement?

    In my quest to create a 100% as-new Trophy, I would like to replace the silver-grey insert on the gear knob, as it's slightly scratched from a ring. My question is can you just replace the insert or do you have to replace the whole knob? I'm assuming the Trophy gear knob and insert is the same...

    K-tec query

    i've got my 182 cup booked into K-tec next week for a janspeed/K-tec sports exhaust - i'm also really tempted by their "stage 1 tuning package" on offer for under £250 from £380 - has anyone else had it done? :? seems a shame to undertake a 5 hour round trip & not make the best of it
