Re: Garm's 1969 project
I couldn't see the shift knob, I was too enamoured with the Duct tape!

Re: Garm's 1969 project
Today's project: Momo "Prototipo" steering wheel.
Grant hub + Momo adaptor (3 to 6 bolt), all went very easy. The horn button works perfect, turn signals cancel.
I'm happy.
While I was at it, I removed the center console. Might do something original there instead.

Re: Garm's 1969 project
Duct tape gone? I like the wheel and the knob. The wheel look kinda grey against the black dash. I love the stock black knob that that is close too, but mine's is ratty. You said it shortens it too? I might be interested.

Re: Garm's 1969 project
Wheel and knob are both black. The wheel is leather.
The Delrin knob shortens the shifter about 1", because the hole/threads are recessed. Feels just right to me now.

Re: Garm's 1969 project
Better than cutting the shifter like someone suggested me. Got it from a website you said? What would I need to get, A Yaris auto trans insert and then the knob?

Re: Garm's 1969 project
Because it was just what I was looking, and I know it fits, you sold one. Cool website, I have a 2006 scion xA but I don't plan on doing anything at all with it.
My stock one, it has red showing where all the chunks are. It also hits my friends leg when they ride with me.

Really nice!
Shorten up the ebrake boot and let that chrome out. Its a well finished piece.

Re: Garm's 1969 project
Thanks! Got a few more things done today. The rat evolves.
Headlights. These have halo lighting and a parking light bulb.
I didn't hook those up yet (haven't decided how I want it), but the headlights are nice and bright.
Camera Mount. This articulates to any angle, for the Contour cam I have. (Also have a GoPro, I like both).
No more twisties & posties. Now we have SPIKIES.

Re: Garm's 1969 project
What are the "spikies" for? How do they work? Curious mind wants to know.

They cover the holes left by the twisties/posties.
They keep unwanted pigeons from roosting on the car.
