                  People on ebay do sell a replacement knob, although it's not a simple pull-off, press-on job.

                  Can't go wrong with a fresh facia though.

                    no, I found a new cheap one at a very good price. I am not sure if I will get it fitted to my coupe but may at a later date - would need all the hardware to be zinc plated as none of the original bolts (20+) are available.

                      Tell me about it. Some parts are completely different from the original.

                      Then it's hoping to find some new old stock/good condition used parts.

                      The M mobility boottrim, are these your old or new ones? I do see some imperfections, which might be the reason for replacement.

                      On the other hand, I've had new parts that came 'pre damaged'. Not fun when you buy a big new premium for exactly that reason.

                        I think the new parts you get are sometimes the rejects from the original assembly line as many of the trim parts I have bought are not 100% even the engine cover I bought showed minor defects.

                        The M mobility trim is new and poorly finished but the other two black plastic covers are from my coupe which I replaced a few years ago with new parts but they have been in storage and the damp has affected the matt paint finish.
