Default Replacement gaiters

Just received the beige leather handbrake and gearlever gaiters from "Mr Gaiter" via eBay. They are really good, esp with walnut gearknob and handbrake, and are an excellent colour match with the Sandstone beige leather of my car.

You have to re-use the existing plastic frames, so Superglue is needed, but I fitted both inside half an hour. For photos look on his website (via ebay's easiest) - there's a pic of a member's car there, if you look for beige ( as there is on here somewhere!)

I'm very pleased, and recommend them. Thanks Bob for your help!

Malcolm

Hi Malcolm,

I'm really glad your happy with the new gaiters, was a little worried in case they weren't as good as you were expecting, especially after reccommending them to all, on here.

Did they ask for some pics for their site ?

Gis a look if you have any.

Bob,

Yes, and I'll try to post some. Just the same as yours, except no phone rest and mine's manual!

Handbrake one's a bit fiddly to glue on, and I broke one of the gearlever gaiter plastic pins, but I had a tiny self-tapper which replaced it perfectly.

Yes, very pleased.

I have to look inside as well before I walk away now, not just glance back over my shoulder..................

Well, I've tried to post a pic of the gaiters, with no success: however I managed to change my avatar pic. So although the pic is tiny, it is there!!!
