Question

Anyone got a tip for holding the gaiter to the bottom of a Momo gear **** (chrimbo prezzy!)?

I saw on Chiark's site about gluing it but don't fancy doing that, and search isn't working, so.....

<sorry didn't spot demondave's post below>

Cheers
Tim

Wrap insulating tape around the gearlever shaft (black if possible) - and just the width of the tape wide - until it is the correct thickness for the gaiter to just pull up over and stay there. There needs to be about a 3mm gap between the bottom of the gearlever **** and the top of the tape.

It sounds a bodge, but isn't - it works neatly - done it on four Imprezas so far.....

Thumbs up

Go to http://www.grahamgoode.com

They sell a machined piece of alloy which I superglued to the bottom on my Momo gear **** which you then slide the gaiter over which holds it in place.

Tried the tape trick today - felt like a bodge but actually works a treat!

Thanks guys.

Cheers
