Mine lasted 10 years. The genuine replacement part cost $145 in 2018. Imagine how much it would have cost if it had moving parts! :eek2:

Not a direct replacement, but this is what I did to mine.

It's a 5 speed knob so not strictly legal.

I saw a guy pulled up in north Richmond a few weeks ago, he was in a stock looking newish land cruiser. I was heading to Richmond to do our shopping at Woolies. On the way home I passed the cop coming the other way past the polo grounds and he gave me the ‘you are next’ look as we passed. I was in our 300Tdi..Quote:
