Exactly, since that adapter does not work for a w123...
I grabbed a nice wood shift knob from mid 80s SD? or SDL? and installed on w123 300D;
The chrome stem was a different length and had unique bends to it, now my automatic gear points are slightly off (like Reverse being at neutral, etc)

IS the best solution to adjust neutral position at the trans?


Not stealing the thread, I think this is related
