Changed My Gear Insert

I found myself a gear insert for my megane 2 on the french ebay for 20 euros inc. delivery to the uk.

Its plastic but the pattern of the gears are carved in so it doesnt wear off after time.
Took me 2 minutes to do, just got a sharp knife and cut around the insert gently, then popped it off using the knife, pushed the new one down. and Done!

See that's the thing. I went to my local Renault in Southend and they said they can only sell me the entire gear knob for about £60!! They didn't sell the insert as a seperate item!
