Rotary gear selector trim

Does anyone know if it is possible to replace the trim that surrounds the rotary gear selector? It is a chrome colour.

Thanks

Thanks for the info absport. Looks like a nice conversion that you have done - I bet you enjoyed doing it.

I can't see the part specifically in your thread but as you have changed yours I'm assuming that I could get hold of it from the dealers?

Is it easyish to fit?

Thanks

It's on the thread and shows the new grey trim surround. To change this the centre consule has to be removed and turned upside down to be able to unscrew the trim surround. Gearstick and surround need to be removed and if I remember the cup holders as well. Once this has been completed you can pull the trim out. Thumbs Up

Oh sorry you want to replace the gear selector itself Embarassed again centre consul off and remove screws. The part you are now saying is around £280 Big Cry Thud

I guess yours is all scratched ???????

It's not just the trim it comes complete with all the terrain switch pack. Whistle

Update your profile with year and model. It makes it easier to know what your talking about Thumbs Up

Yes sorry for any confusion with this. Will update my profile tomorrow.

It's the complete surround that I need as you say it's scratched a bit and looks somewhat unsightly. If I don't replace it do you know if it can be re polished or something like that?

Thanks for the info.

Personally I'd replace with new. It's that highly polished it does show marks very easy. As said above the gear selector in chrome was very expensive :blub

A little tip, once you replace it keep your keys in your pocket. Thumbs Up this is how it gets scratched by keys being left on the centre consul ( cup holder area) keys in hand to get out apply handbrake and it scratches.. Embarassed

Thanks for the advice - very much appreciated.

I will indeed look to get it replaced rather than attempt a repair based on your information - shame the price jumped from £45 to £280 though Rolling with laughter
