Default Dash Knobs for my F8

Tony,
I'd previously checked out the knobs in both Mac's and Carpenter's catalog and ruled them out as they appear to have the "hook" shaft that locks into the switch box cast into them. I tried to remove this shaft from the originals and were unable to do so. If this shaft can be easily removed from the reproduction ones I'll buy them. At $8 USD each I didn't want to purchase four of them and find that they couldn't be used.

As for the throttle and choke knobs, the originals are in fairly good condition and I'm using them as they are (with a bit of cleaning!).

Thanks for your suggestion!

Regards,
Jim
