Gotta love how Porsche sources items directly from the VW parts bin-

Bored, and want to do some more modding for fun, so I got this 987 style shift knob from fleabay that I'm going to transfer onto my aluminum horseshoe shift boot to make it work in my 986, and notice that the VW Jetta's shift knob looks pretty much exactly the same as the one they put in the Porsche... LOL

Porsche 987/997 style knob $260 at dealer (and no, I did not pay that ridiculous price for the knob!):


VW Jetta shift knob. About $20 bucks:
