Which gearknob/gearstick? Some gearknobs have rubber inserts. The thread on my 1098 gear lever is 18TPI

Bit of an old thread, but does that 18TPI equate to 5/16ths UNC? ie the same thread as a classic Mini gear knob? I'm trying to track down an 8 ball gear knob (I had one in the Land Rover and I loved it) and there's loads of them on the bay for Minis but none for MMs. Thanks for any replies.mike.perry wrote:Which gearknob/gearstick?

Oh well, I have a friend with a classic mini I could persuade to take it off my hands if it doesn't fit. Thanks
