Hi guys, I have a VT6 with a Plus interior and my gear knob has seen better days, has anyone used anyone to recommend when it comes to refurbishment? Im wanting it with the red stitching to match.

The thread is equal to mölnlycke goliath 9361
Not sure if it is still available, my mother in law had some and repaired part of my plus seat. Can’t see the difference to the original.

What with wink's reference to "sara" and now carmine's "thread equalling mölnlycke goliath 9361" crazy , I'm beginning to think I must be suffering from dementia, still, maybe it's better than Coupe paranoia? Or just something lost in translation?

Not sure if the correct word is yarn or thread. It’s not my native tongue either.

I tried to find the red thread / yarn on the internet. Not available, seems to be last produced in the 70s! Exact fit to the thread / yarn in my plus seats though. I asked my mother in law for it to be in our part of her heritage!
