This specific part number is the \"short\" version designed to sit flush against a flat metal dashboard. It is a favorite for owners of early-to-mid production Ghias and Type 3s, as well as Beetle enthusiasts performing the popular \"Cal-Look\" modification of removing the 1968+ padded dashboard to expose the painted metal underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eFinished in a factory-correct soft black rubber, this knob provides a superior grip compared to plastic alternatives. Because it is designed for a metal dash, it lacks the extra depth required to clear a foam-padded dash, ensuring your controls don't look \"extended\" or out of place.
