knob problem

[Baz]

Having just unpacked my new gearstick knob, purchased from a well advertised Fiat site, I discovered that my lovely Pinninfarina logo'd knob has no $&*## thread fitted to screw onto the gear stick. Do I have a knob that has slipped passed the QA dept. or am I missing something. Someone else has to have purchased one of these.
Yet another condom on the penis of progress. As usual, any wisdom appreciated.

Take a picture of the knob and send it to the vendor to confirm.

you'll be wanting 10mm x 1.25 threads when you get to that point. any chance that knob can have that size threads added?

sounds like an oops in someone's quality control.

I've seen some cheezy ones that just use a set screw, so they'll fit any thread.

me too. cannot chase threads into those "one size fits all"

they usually come with some plastic sleeves as adaptors.
