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.
