[AT] Fiat

After replacing the range shift cable on the TS110 New Holland money 
pit, the small square plastic rabbit and turtle marker called a "decal" 
fell out of the 8-16 shifter knob.   It is a long knob, and over the 
years with the sun shining in the cab it has begun to peel the rubber 
covering over the plastic knob.  The other gear shifter is doing the 
same thing.    I just checked on the price of the knobs.  One is $177 
and the other is $60.  Half that would be expensive enough, but this is 
just ridiculous.  Not much way to repair the old one either...

Tractor manufacturers are just pricing themselves out of business...
