Knob

I was driving a really nice MG TF for MG Enthusiast today, cracking car, the owner let me take it out on the road on my own for a proper road-test and while I was winding my way around north Cornwall I thought 'Hmm, what a lovely knob' so I'm thinking, will the TF knob fit my ZS?

Squeaks will become famous soon enough
Ive tried to get my Chrome MGF Knob to fit my ZS,

The MGF/TF ones screw into place, I know if it was to go on a ZTT it would been to be boardout more, i think it would be the same with the zs, but then you have the problem of fitting it in place.

Hmm. I guess if I can find a cheap one, it might be worth a try

If all else fails drill the hole bigger and lashings of Araldite, then cross fingers you never want it off again.

loving the version there.............bored out

I once drilled and tapped an 8 ball to fit my Marina van

You can get it to fit as long as you know the final sizes required and get a bush turned up as a press fit or better still use a grub screw.

That reminds me I had a momo one on the 120, which was basically the same as the TF one, and I forgot to swap them over before I sold it!
