Plain "Cueball Style" Shift Knob (threaded for VW - M12x1.5)
Shared by
3DPrintedCarPartDescription
This is simply a basic shift knob I designed in TinkerCAD and printed for my mk3 VW Cabrio. Will fit many other VWs with similar thread pattern. For me, I heated up the metal threaded shaft with a heat gun before screwing it on to help the threads seat better. NOTE: if printing in PLA, be aware that the heat inside a car may cause warping. I printed mine in wood and covered with a thick stain/lacquer and it has held up OK.
