Mazda 2 knobs. Straight fit into the Triton apparently. The OP said that you have to trim 2-3mm from the back for a snug fit.



I found a set on eBay. For $7 thought I'd give it a go. Will post the results in my build thread.

I just ordered some of those knobs

from the pic I rekon they look

if not, its only $7

[variflex]

Is it simply a matter of pulling out the old knob and pushing in the new style or do I have to pull the dash apart?

[Snooozy]

from the post a couple up it seems they go straight on but need a little trimming of the stalk

[viking shippy]

Oh noooo did I...

[variflex]

You lot are a bad influence, seems I'm on the band wagon aswell

[viking shippy]

First with a picture up wins....no cheating...you must trim the 3 mm of each dial...

[Snooozy]

what do I win

this thread has gone off topic

we have a 'show us your switches' & 'show us your rack' threads

maybe we need a 'show us your knob' thread

[variflex]

I had to laugh when the eBay add said 9 sold in the last hour, I bet theres a few others on here secretly doing the mod.

[Snooozy]

the sellers will wonder what the hell is going on

I found 2 different sellers of the same knob

[variflex]

I also noticed some knobs in an aluminium finish, that was way too boy racer for me, with aluminium knobs my wife would be driving the triton through 6 stage

Thought that this deserved its own topic, so split it off from the paddle shift one.

Carry on....

No probs. Just part of the service.

Only difficulty I had was deciding on a title...knobs you didn't know you needed...more knobs on NTN...replace your knob...

That's another 7 bucks this place has cost me... what a knob.

Is there a specific technique to removing the factory knobs, I applied a little outward force this morning but they didnt move

I used a bit of fishing line looped around the back and pulled.

[har05l]

I've ordered also

[variflex]

Thanks Motoz, so basically they do pull straight out, I was concerned there may have been a spring type clip on the back

[har05l]

If you break yours daz then I won't attempt mine
