Ford one is standard M10 on my car. I tapped out a snooker ball for the gearknob.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Donut,
I used the same knob on my car.
It was the first fail point at SVA!!
The radius between the sphere and the badge was less than 2.5mm!

I have just swapped my Abarth knob (ex X19!) for a Lotus one on my car, the thread is M10x1.5.
The stainless steel ball knob types are usually held on with a M5 grub screw (2.5mm hex key)
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation
