Lrc - I will check what the electrics with the button on my knob does. Might just strip off the plastic cladding and se what is underneath. Will mail you if I want your
Cheers
[Edit]
The button on the knob lifts a rod that stops you going out of park or from drive to reverse without pressing it in. Purely mechanical but kind of handy.
I might get a leather knob for the auto and also fit a gaiter from the manual. It will work in exactly the same way as it does at the moment but look like a manual.
