While driving my LGT today, I shift into 4th and "pop". The little Momo Subaru label pops out of the shifter knob. It isn't sticky and the shifter isn't sticky.... there is just a red dot of some hard adhesive left on the knob.
Has this happened to anyone else? How did you re-attach the little round label?

Same with Airleather Momo knob. Common problem.
Krazy glue solved it.

OK... Just leave the red crap there and crazy glue it back on, eh?

Take your hand off the knob between shifts, give it time to cool off :icon_wink

Most cyanoacrylate glues are pretty brittle. There are less brittle versions that wood turners use.
You might want to scrape off the previous adhesive and try something like ... contact adhesive?

The little red dot is friggin hard! It won't come off very easily. :eek:

mine popped off also crazy glue is not made to fill a gap like in the shift knob you need a two part epoxy for metal. bosco
