No worries -- glad to give info. The shift knob isn't threaded, but uses a set screw. No threads needed -- be sure you're looking at the lift-reverse ones; the non-lift are more likely to be threaded. And you probably noticed - they're all going to be expensive. Pound-to-Dollar is bad news, plus import.
I haven't had any problems at all with the set screw arrangement, but if you were to have some movement of the knob, you could drill a small depression to align and hold the screw. More trouble than it's worth, really -- mine has never ever moved.
Also, a note on the shift boot - you can re-use the stock one OK. it is held tight at the top from the factory by a zip-tie, inside out (that'll make sense when you take it off and see what I mean). You can leave it right side out, and use a black zip tie to thread the top shut, then trim the zip tie flush so no excess sticks out. It'll be out of sight, and the boot will look factory.
