I just replaced the gear knob on my Baojun 630 last year. Actually, manual gear knobs can all be replaced—just buy one with the corresponding thread specification and screw it off directly. When I removed the original gear knob, I found it was secured with threadlocker, so I had to use a wrench to grip the dust boot base and twist hard. You can buy alloy ones with LED lights online for just twenty or thirty bucks, but I'd suggest not getting anything too flashy—it'd be awkward if after installation you find the gear positions don't align. The key is to check if the threads are the universal M10×1.5 specification. When installing, it's best to apply some threadlocker to prevent loosening. Once, during a track day, the gear knob flew off and almost hit the passenger!
