Just replace it, but this is what you get for keeping your hand on your **** whilst driving

Tony

PS, it also doesnt do the gear linkage any good

I've got the wr1 prodrive one on the car now, but wanted the standard six speed leather with the red numbers off a hawk STI. I'm just getting bored of the cold alloy.

I can understand that mate. I have the alloy **** on my Rb320. It burns my hand in the summer and gives me frost bite in the winter

On the newage 6-speed ones, does the top part come off at all? It looks like it might be push-fitted......
