Colin Lindsay Posted December 11, 2020 Report Share Posted December 11, 2020 32 minutes ago, NonMember said: Actually it's quite a noticeable difference in angle when you put a Spitfire/GT6 gear lever next to a Herald/Vitesse one. Dolomite ones are even straighter than Herald. I read the advertising that claimed the GT6 had a 'short cranked gear lever' but I've never yet compared Herald and GT6. Now you've put that thought in my head... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avivalasvegas Posted December 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Hopefully, this is the right lever https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/154152279998 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avivalasvegas Posted December 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2020 Just received a quote from a local SE London shop for £100 to chrome the above gear lever. Blimey! Anyone know of another option with a good reputation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Jones Posted December 21, 2020 Report Share Posted December 21, 2020 I’d say that was a Spitfire lever. Too long for GT6 and too angled to be Herald/Vitesse Nick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know of another option with a good reputation? god at that price Id try wrapping it in chrome self adhesive or heat shrink film. Anyway by the time you fit a proper gaiter over the horrible standard rubber thing the amount of lever left exposed is minimal.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avivalasvegas Posted December 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 Sound advice- result pictured below. The steering wheel is the only one I could - I suppose it’ll have to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
