Gear knob Leather

The gear knob on my 09 VRX is not looking very good, the leather (not sure if its real on the VRX) is worn.

Has anyone got them covered with new leather?

I've looked for them on eBay and not found any for the CJ, also wouldn't mind doing something with the shift boot and a cover for the hand brake.

Was thinking of getting a quote at a local upholstery place, just too see what they charge.

Has anyone else tried doing something like this?

Thanks, I've checked them out but no mention of gear knobs or boot.

I would so love there custom leather seats and door inserts if I had the cash. Thinking of starting small with the knob and boot.

Wouldn't it be cheaper to buy a new gear knob? (genuinely don't know)

I always replace my gear knob on each car I own now, just for a bit of personalisation, but I spend stupid $$ on stainless ones :P

I have no idea how much it would cost, might ask Monday if I get the time.

This is the one I like but I can't justify the cost right now.

I did get one of these.

But if I can get the stock one looking better I'd love to refit it.
