Default My gear knob is bloody cold!

Any one else find their gear knob uncomfortably cold in these conditions. I set the air to the vents above the stereo so the knob gets plenty of hot air, but its always very cold to touch.

Softy southerner.


OK, being helpful - A few on here have made or bought knob socks.
No idea where you get one though.

The 09 car comes with an all metal knob - lovely

Does that mean I have to shop in mothercare. Not done that for about 25 years!

Fecking freezing.
But your hand just sticks to it - and you have the option of

1/ losing a layer of skin
2/ keeping it there for the duration of your journey - and pray it thaws out.


Actually - I don't notice it that much. Just part of the charm of the car.

I reckon a woolen willy warmer from anne summers will do the trick. I wonder if I can buy one on line!
