Much better than the knob on my 2011 1600 diesel giullietta which was made of plastic with a metal skin which had broken up and peeled. This is an exact replica but made of a metal alloy. The problem arose in removing the old knob "cap". Unable to prise it off I resorted to cutting it off. Inside was what appeared to be a ball of stiff glutinous plastic foam which held everything together and under which nestled the nut an bolt which held the knob to the gearstick. I had seen a Youtube video showing how to remove the cap by first softening the glue with a hairdryer but for a different model alfa so ignored it. This is worth trying first though as I now have to glue everything back together. But this a great alternative to paying silly money for a complete knob.

Perfect new top for gear knob...a little hard to fit unless yours has completely broken off as the three clips fit into the inner housing with sticky pads on top. APPARENTLY ALFA GARAGES HAVE THE CORRECT TOOL TO TAKE THE OLD ONE OFF AND IF YOUR NOT CONFIDENT, I SUGGEST YOU GET THIS FITTED PROFESSIONALLY. I very carefully cut my original one off by a file saw at the very top making sure you don't go into the Black hard rubber this fits over. You can then prize it off without damaging anything and the new one then just clips in the three holes in the Black rubber. I used a tiny bit of glue on the old sticky pad points. Also you can then get to the nut to tighten everything up if you have some play in the knob. Take it easy and slowly and use a vacuum while cutting around and all should be OK.Read full review

Original gear knob, fits perfect. But as it is original, it will let you down over time. It is a plastic base covered in a film that looks like aluminium. The first one started to peel and disappear in bits, so this one will do the same. Is there no solid aluminium knob out there? Would love to get my hands on one.
