Max, ask and ye shall receive. I can get the new 4 speed shift knobs in black (sorry brown interior folks). They are special order from Germany and will have to wait until my next order at this point since I just did an order this morning. I could do them for $19 each. If anyone has something they can't find and they are actually interested in buying it (not just trying to see if it can be sourced), then pmail me and I can check for you. I am doing about one or two orders from Germany a month. Usually if you order something, even though it is a special order item, it will take two weeks to come in. So if it isn't an emergency, it isn't really that big of a deal for me to get these things for you. Some of them will be expensive, so if you are trying to save a dollar or two, getting special order parts from Germany probably isn't for you. But if you want OE VW stuff that is new instead of used, many things can be still purchased, and many more are being reproduced using the original molds, etc. with the VW logo on it. Just drop me a line or give me a call.
