Just fitted the P38 gear knob this afternoon and looking very smart, I decided to fit a new gaiter as well whilst I was at it, but the new remade leather ones on eBay are thicker than the original Rover one and had a bit of trouble, (You can't tuck the leather into the top and slide it up so it clicks onto the bottom of the gear lever, but its there!) so not ideal but it again looks good.
Think I may try a different supplier at some stage! and give it a another go!

Mine have all been black....

But I have seen a beige one on a car for sale (probaly on Ebay)
And it did look original too .

Sorry for the delay in posting, I had a few problems which have now been resolved. So here is a photo of the new knob and gaiter as requested.
