    FS: 18" OEM Huffs in Brand New Condition - East Bay, CA

    WTB: GTI/GLI Shift Knob Boot Clip

    I just bought a GTI knob for my Jetta and apparently the clip on the underside of the boot that holds the boot to the knob is different. I need the clip from a GTI/GLI shift knob.

    If you knew then, what you know now about your .:R...

    ...would you buy it again? If so, what has reinforced your belief that the .:R is much more worth it as compared to a modded GTI? If not, what would you, or will you, go with instead as a comparable car?
