Quick question, is the insignia gear knob different to the Astra one? If so how is it different and would it fit from the siggy to the Astra? I'm trying to work out which gear knob I have as the siggy is apparently thicker

@Tucpal your inbox is full mate

You've most likely got the bi-turbo as you have the VX-line kit. It's the same as the OPC VXR just without the badges.

The insignia standard gear knob is the same as the standard astra j
it is the vxline insignia and VXR that are different
they are the same as the Astra j VXR gear knob
but the surround is different so it is not a straight swap work is needed

That is just a standard 6 speed gear knob you have there ???

**tucpal**

this is an insignia vx line gear knob

I was thinking the same and I have bought all sorts of random stuff for my car but would never pay more than 25 for that gearstick!

So yeah I've got a standard gear nob, brilliant haha. So much for it being on the vxline

**tucpal** · 27:th-Jan-2016, 23:09:14

Nope sorry but good news is I have just found and got one

**Nemo**

How much if you don't me asking?

also which should I have then? What does it look like?

**tucpal** · 28:th-Jan-2016, 10:29:19

if you had the vx line it should have been the top one in the above post with the pictures i put up mate
the one without the vxr logo..

**Nemo** · 28:th-Jan-2016, 21:37:42

Funny that I don't have it

**tucpal**

You don't get it on the Astra j vxline only the gtc vxr and possibly the biturbo sure hev will answer that there on the insignia vxline and vxr

SO will the insignia VX-line gearstick fit the Astra J?

***Rusty2009*** · 28:th-Aug-2017, 07:24:45

Yes just have to swap the bottom over.
