I was thinking of buying exacly sme knob for my w124.
I think it looks good, and it would look much than the factory one.

Installation procedure

You must have figured out how to install that wooden shift knob before you purchased it. What are the steps involved in the procedure you intend to use?

Well let me know if you get all the directions for installing it and feel confident in doing so. I personally don't know anyone who has done it, but it is something I've had my eyes on for a long time. Would be a nice upgrade to my good old bank vault on wheels.

There’s a bolt at the bottom of the shifter – the console/shift gate must be partially disassembled to access it. Please don’t cut it off.
