Question How cold does your **** get

First time, since I got my car, that it has been cold. I have a metal mono gearstick **** and it was freezing cold to touch and took some time to warm up
We have heated screens, heated wing mirror, heated seats, now I need a heated gearstick ****.

The titanium one in my Integra used to be a nightmare for it!!

You wait till its really cold, you'll be changing gear with your sleeve round your hand. Alternatively do lots of extra miles and pray on global warming

Yeah but the other side is when the weather is really hot the gear **** gets scorching hot so its swings and roundabouts. Good tip is when you leave the car warming up put the heaters on full and you get in to a nice warm ****

I do remember when I first got mine ( has a metal **** ), we went out for the day and the car was parked in the sun, so got really hot inside. Other half was driving and when she set off she screamed - when I asked her what was wrong she said 'I just burned my hand on your ****' - bet theres not many men who could say that !

I have a cream leather **** which i had custom made to match my cream leather driving gloves, no problems with a cold **** here.

I`m thinking of getting a cream leather pipe case to match the above, what do you think ?
