Anyone have a gear shift knob for manual 93 EV or know where to get one? Mine is split with a zip tie and about to fall off.

The part (1H0711141A) is probably still order-able from the dealer. Otherwise, I was surprised to find an identical shift knob in what was either a B3/B4 Passat or an early MK3 Golf.
Here below you see the knob on the left was pulled in the junkyard, the knob on the right from a Eurovan.
Shift Knobs
Anyhow -- if you don't find one in a junk yard, or order one through the dealer, you can have one of mine if you pick up the shipping. |

Right-on, sir!
Did you ever find out from the dealer if they had these sill available and cost? |

I've found that GoWesty's shifter knob will also thread into the Eurovan's manual shift lever, but you'll need to add a spacer for a proper fit.

Checked the dealership and they can order the knob for a 31US fee and it would be a couple days and free shipping there.
