Hoping for a bit of help.
Trying to get a replacement gear lever/gaiter for my rhd mk7 5 speed 2013.
Everything I can find online seems to be lhd only.
Anyone out there know of anywhere that can supply a replacement ease

Thanks for the reply but they are different. Had one delivered and the angle at the top of the gaiter base is inclined to suit lhd. The centre console, cubby, air con controls and screen all incline towards the driver on the mk7

oh sorry, you’re looking for the shift boot and trim not an actual shifter mechanism but a interior trim, I misread.

Pin @golfdave he’s got quite a database and real good with finding OE part numbers, as that’s probably your best route for tracking down a 5speed RHD knob and boot, since everything seems to pop up the 6 speed knob look when just basic google search is performed.

1-5 speed rhd throws up these depending on colour, items in BOLD look the best match:-

5G2-711-113

5G2-711-113 MIS

5G2-711-113 C

5G2-711-113 MIT

5G2-711-113 DWD

5G2-711-113 FBF

5G2-711-113 GCX

Dealer parts dept??...thats where I get most of my stuff...mind you where I live the P&P is expensive for most online stuff, so it works out cheaper for me from the dealer.
