In a second aspect of the disclosure there is provided a knob cavity cover, shaped to cover an opening of a knob cavity in a gear shift lever knob as described above, the knob cavity cover being at least partly transparent, and comprising a gear shift graphics integrated into the knob cavity cover. The gear shift graphics may be formed in any of the ways described above. The knob cavity cover may be used and sold as an exchange part, for example in order to upgrade or retrofit existing gear shift lever knobs.
In a third aspect of the disclosure there is provided a background plate adapted to fit in the knob cavity of a gear shift lever knob as described above. The background plate may be used and sold as an exchange part, for example in order to upgrade or retrofit existing gear shift lever knobs. In addition, the knob cavity cover and the background plate may be sold as a kit.
However, although the two documents mentioned above disclose gear shift lever knobs which may more easily be able to be located in darkness, the prior art solutions are rather complicated, involving various small parts and/or assembly steps. There is therefore a need for an improved gear shift lever knob comprising fewer parts and/or being simpler to manufacture.
Document US 6,834,987 B2 discloses a kit for retrofitting gear shift lever knobs. The kit comprises a retrofit knob cavity cover to replace an existing knob cavity cover. The retrofit cover has a lens aperture and a switch aperture. The lens aperture receives a lens comprising a transparent portion. A light illuminating means is positioned to be disposed within the knob cavity when the existing knob cavity cover is replaced by the retrofit knob cavity cover. A portion of the illuminating means extends within an illuminating well illuminating the lens when activated. A switching means having a portion extending into the switch aperture activates the illuminating means. A label may be adhered to the back of the lens to be viewed through the lens aperture. In an embodiment a light energizable material, such as a phosphorus paint, may be connected to the lens, e.g. coated at its back side. The light energizable material is energized by the light illuminating means.
The background plate may be releasably attachable to the knob body. Therefore the background plate may easily be exchanged. The exchange may be arranged to only be made during production, by a workshop or by the user of the gear shift lever knob himself. Thereby the appearance of the background may be adapted to the appearance of the vehicle in which it is located, e.g. by having a sports look or a luxury look. This facilitates production, since the same knob body may be used for manufacturing gear shift lever knobs with different appearances. This makes it easier to manufacture a plurality of different variants of the gear shift lever knob, especially since the knob cavity cover comprising the gear shift graphics can be varied independently of the background plate.
