Hi, I guess it ought to be a MT75 gearbox knob, considering the gear layout (reverse on the right).

4x4 as it has a large hole for the reverse lever.

The one on my 1990 4x4 Cosworth seems to have a different attaching bit inside.
I am looking for a new insert (the bit with the gear layout printed on it) for mine if this, or another is for sale by anyone.
thanks David

Assuming you are talking about the original post, - any idea why the way mine clips on to the stick appears to be different from that one. David

There were 2 types, push on gear knob and screw on gear knob, outwardly both are identical in appearance
