    VR6 Gear Knob and Boot Change

    so the VR6 gear knob is a bit ratty and i'd like to get it changed.

    Going on ebay, i see so many different options but not sure what i should look out for.

    After some searching, some say that the mk4 ones fit on the mk3 but some dont or they need a modified boot.

    I just really want something simple and cost effective, no need to splurge for oem ones etc.

    Any suggestions?
