Gear knob and Gaitor
Where can I get a nice 5 speed knob and gator that will fit a 2016 caddy? I bought one of the cheap £12 ones on eBay but it looks and feels cheap. The gator is also stretched to its limit to fit

Thanks, did you staple the gaitor when fitting?

No, I didn’t have to, when you put the outer trim on it traps it in place

Thats what I tried with the eBay one, as expected there isn't enough play and its pulled itself out
I can't seem to find anything on eBay suitable, anyone selling one on here?

Instead of stapling a gator on I suppose you could use contact adhesive.
