Cant find a replacement shift knob for VE sv6

[BraydenCassar]

Hi everyone,
I own a 2009 VE SV6 ute.
It is Manuel, and the shift knob is starting to show its age. Ive already replaced the wheel and have been wanting to do the shifter. The only thing is the reverse in my car is top left, thats right, next to 1st (the problem).

I cant find a replacement part for it, other then with reverse in top right. i do not what to put one in. Does anyone know where i can find one or how to do an aftermarket on a Commy. (Does not unscrew fake commy fans so stop your acting)

Might have to get your old one redone mate. There's a guy on facebook who does awesome work, probably the best upholsterer in the country. Downside is he has a few month waiting period as he is in such demand (shows how good his work is). I can give you his details, that way at least you have a worst case scenario if you like?

You can still get genuine ones for the SV6, I've had to replace mine twice so far as the Silver plating starts bubbling, first was under warranty
Mind you they are stupidly expensive, over $200 on ebay.

This generic one looks promising https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/5-6-Speed-3-Cap-Black-PU-Leather-Manual-Car-Gear-Shift-Lever-Shifter-Stick-Knob/254581966797

My GTRS W1 knob was Ridiculously expensive, just under $500
