Construction and materials

The presented knob with boot has been designed as an OEM component for the Mercedes brand, which ensures the preservation of the correct geometry, shape, and mounting method to the factory gear lever. The outer surface is made of black leather, which provides a secure grip, good control over the shifter, and visual consistency with other upholstery elements.

The Black color facilitates integration with most interior configurations, and the properly profiled knob head promotes precise lever guidance during dynamic driving. The integrated boot protects the gear shifting mechanism from dust and dirt, which positively affects the overall operation of the system.

Functionality and ergonomics

The knob is adapted for use with a 6-speed manual transmission, with a clear gear layout on top, which facilitates intuitive lever operation. The knob + boot set creates a complete module that, after proper installation, restores the natural hand position of the driver and predictable resistance when shifting gears.

The leather finish reduces hand slippage, especially during longer drives, and the appropriate stiffness of the boot stabilizes the movement of the shifter. As a result, the driver receives a balanced combination of comfort and precision, without the need to interfere with the transmission structure.

Condition and application

The item is offered as Used, which in practice means factory origin and preservation of the original mounting specifications. This is a beneficial solution for users who want to maintain compliance with the manufacturer's equipment, avoiding problems with fitting replacements of uncertain dimensions.

Thanks to the preservation of the original form, the knob with boot fits well into the stylistic line of the C117 family models, allowing for a technically correct replacement of a worn or damaged element without modifying the center console or the lever.

Benefits of installation

• Cohesive interior look – black leather harmonizes with the factory upholstery and dashboard.
• Better grip ergonomics – the knob profile promotes secure lever guidance during daily use.
• Mechanism protection – the boot limits the ingress of contaminants into the gear shifting mechanism.
• Original fitment – an OEM product for the Mercedes brand minimizes the risk of installation problems.
