If you are doing it locost, leather look ones are available in every mk5 escort in a scrapyard near you. Fit the type9 and sierra handbrake a
treat

If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

Just buy the the leather gaiter from your local Max Power type shop!
Thats what I did!
If you can beg or borrow the use of a lathe ,you can make fancy handles foe pennies

Gear knob
Gear knob is a Richbrooke Uni hex £25, for that money its not worth making.
The shaft is the pull up type for the MT75 box. Made from some offcuts.
