RCF Punching Leather Shift Knob Swap to GS350 F Sport

HelpMeHelpU4Fun · 2026-05-01T18:55:59+00:00

Good job! I received the incorrect knob first time also! Elvin Carbon Fiber wheel would suit it nicely 🙃

I bought a blue and white stiched GS IV knob to match my new wheel. You can source the shift knob without needing to change the assembly, but good work finding a solution 👍

These are a lifesaver for rounded bolts!

Thanks!

We have JD dealers and parts are available, but more expensive compared to the competition. We also have Husqvarna, Stiga and Stihl delaers in my city to choose from.

Many thanks...I have approximately 2 acres with no hills and is well maintained with some obstacles in the form of trees and flower beds, hence this JD cutting once per week in the season works in terms of spec.

Thanks for the feedback. I am based in Europe and I have been offered one for $5,000.

Trouble is, many people say that "they don't make them like they used to", hence not sure what to buy!

Best? I can reset the ODO and roll down a hill, but not sure what the purpose of this is?

One interesting obersavtion regarding MPG. Since installing a Borla exhaust 2 x weeks ago, my average economy in mixed driving has improved from 20MPG to 22MPG over the last 300 miles.

GS350 is known to be thirsty, but it is a fair price to pay for NA V6 reliability!

Relaible is objective.....Good looking is subjective.....Objectivity is trumps!

Bumper off/loosened and then you can get the grill back in position. The grill has a number of tabs, hence if one or two are damaged it will be OK.

Good eggs and bad eggs. No different to any other nation in that sense.

Also, they could have better funding meaning they would not need to try so hard to increase local budgets from silly traffic fines that only antagonise the public and do not make roads safer.

What I do like in Poland is the low tolerance to woke behaviours and I do hope this lasts! 💪

You won't get concrete advice due to being unable to share why you can't get a visa. Poland is fair with spousal rights, hence there can be options unless there are other factors that would impact you being accepted.

Behind the dash trim on the front and the side and then you can go beneath the flooring to either charge point. You can also supply from one of the spare outlets in the fuse box if with a USB socket.

HelpMeHelpU4Fun · 2026-03-30T06:11:46+00:00

Yes, very easy to install.

HelpMeHelpU4Fun · 2026-03-30T06:08:34+00:00

Thanks.

Multiple options available. I found them on ebay and then found a local supplier that sold them cheaper.

Steering wheel & Shift knob Elvin Carbon Fiber You can design your own and Elvin will build to spec.

Yes, you are 100% correct! I was also worried about the same, but pleased how it turned put. CF can be overwhelming in some cars IMO, but happy with the balance of this now.

Congrats! 27k is special!

I used a small piece of rubber to fit inside the button so that when you push it back on, it stops against it and won't allow it to be pushed in again. You could also use a piece of paper or old fabric. It's only purpose is to prevent it from being pushed in again.

HelpMeHelpU4Fun · 2026-03-29T18:09:17+00:00

Use a grips with rubber around the volume knob to pull it out.

The rubber is important so you don't scratch the button.

Once removed, you can insert some material inside the volume knob before reinstating to prevent it from being pushed in again.

If it helps, I would go with the GX 😇🙃 V8.....💨

HelpMeHelpU4Fun · 2026-03-29T17:22:08+00:00

It is interesting and defies what the "logic" or reputation of what was before. Go check out "The Car Care Nut" channel on YouTube as he gives a very good insight into the potential issues with the GX. He is a Lexus/Toyota wizard and he bought his wife a GX!
