Go to ebay .... most shaft sizes are standard and you will probably find it ... if not look around the house ... maybe a light dimmer knob will fit (although it is a big knob) Most knobs fit into a shaft that is flat on one side ,,, look at the hole on the knob ... it should look "half moon" if it's round with no flat area ... get creative with krazy glue .... However ...KEEP THE KRAZY GLUE OUTSIDE THE CAR
