Re: [DML] Shift knob and other accessories

Chris.
Try filling in the shift pattern with paint. I did this years ago by puting
on several coats of fast drying white lacquer. While I tried to get most of
it in the grooves it was not necessary to be precise. After it is dry,
simply sand off the entire knob with progressivly 220 grit and then 400 grit
to remove the paint that missed the grooves. The finished result is much
more attractive and as an additional benefit has a much better (quality)
feel.

Enjoy,
Don
