rev4 turbo factory gear knob

Post by ryanaj79 »

Hi all, not sure Im posting in the right area, but wondering if theres a way to find out the part code for a ball gear knob for rev4 tubby?

Its the original, but the plastic is damaged, but can only find aftermarket TRD ball knobs, not with 1-5 R on them,
or does anyone kno how I could replace the plastic thats cracked,
cheers :)

That's not a stock mr2 gear knob. That's a trd ball knob with a different shift pattern top piece.

That's no OEM gear knob in that picture.

Rev 3-4 had the same gear knob except the Rev 5 had red stitching

ahh, thats cool, cheers for your wisdom :) thought it was OEM,
if i cant find a plastic bit to replace top, will look for another TRD ball one, tho cant find any with shift pattern on the internet, only 'TRD'
but suppose I shouldnt be picky :)

All the trd ball knobs I've ever seen only have trd on the shift pattern, rather than an actual shift pattern. :-k

That's right. Fairly sure you get two or three stickers in the box with different shift patterns that you can stick on the gear shift surround. Doesn't look very good though imo.
