Default Any reviews of this Spec-C Type RA-R Gearknob?

Noticed this on ebay for £20 delivered from HK.

Will it be freezing in the winter and boiling in the summer?

Looks like it's for a lift-reverse. Does your car have that?

I've got one on my Spec C, good quality but I'd get one from Litchfeld Imports who have them on the shelf for about £40 inc postage, may seem more expensive but you could be stung for customs clearance fees and import duty which could easily exceed the £20 or so difference.

Plus of course you'll get it quicker, I got mine next working day.

And it doesn't suffer from the hot / cold issue either.
