Newbie Question: Shift Layout 1999 Esprit
I have a 1999 Esprit V8 on its way to me. I know that reverse is down and to the left with a ring lift first. So are there 5 speeds after that or 6 (going forward of course) and is 1st speed up or down? Sorry for the dumb question but pictures of the car coming to me have a plain shifter with no id markings. For that matter - where can I buy a new shifter knob to fit this vehicle - Something with maybe a Lotus Logo. Will also need a new rear badge and a few other cosmetics - do I have a lot of sites to choose from...truly a newbie to Lotus's - just kind of bought one out of nowhere on impulse..
