Default Gearknob advice

I have a Vesion 9 STI and am looking at purchasing a new gearknob - not sure whether to go Prodrive or keep OEM. I can source a brand new version 10 STI gearknob - can anyone tell me if this will fit a version 9 or shall I give the Prodrive one a go? Many Thanks..

Down to preference really but only thing with prodrive one is that it's alloy and will be cold to touch in winter and probably scratch easily especially if you wear rings, I like the rar ones in black plastic or the std one, the v10 one will fit no probs
