got one that used to be in my riley elf.
i'd have to check though, failing that i think i made one out of pine.

Its from 3mm ply or something like that

ive got a template for it, but it could take some finding

like nics or the riley elf jobby, a template or a whole dash will do,

i'd be up for making one its just i've tryed it twice & i'll use dirty words, i foooked it up, big timme once too small once to big, adjusted the big one & then it was too small n wonky D

nice n simple like the elf or nics plz help, my clocks are zip tied together at the mo lol!

I recently made mine from MDF and still have the template details which worked great - I have top and lower rails fitted though (not like Nic). If you want my template details you can pm me with an email addy and I'll send them to you.

It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt... Then it's hilarious!

That Knob looks heavy nic.

Back once again like a renegade master

I've been told the same thing!

My knob has served me for 2 and 1/2 years now and i wouldnt change it for the world.

Back once again like a renegade master

Back in my younger days when i could get female attention, we went to mcdonalds drive-thru.

I ordered myself a cheeseburger, and ate it as we drove.
Unfortunately the cheese melted and ended up on my hands, this ended up on the gear stick.

A few days later we went out in the car again, but she ended up dumping me! I was shocked and asked her why, she said that she couldnt stand my cheesy knob anymore, and that i should clean it more regularly. She wasnt going to go anywhere near me if i couldnt keep my knob clean....

sometimes i use my other hand to stroke it up and down the box, it feels well wierd!

"Turbo's make torque, and torque makes fun"

"did you know you can toast potato waffles?"

My mate (honestly) said you should lay on your arm until it goes dead and then try

Why you want it to feel like some one else is changing gear for you ill never know????

If you can afford £125 you could try doing one like mine.
