When I got my Monaco GP game, the L-H shifter was missing its original center cap. I've attached a pic of what I *think* is supposed to be in there (a silver disc).

I'm trying to think of something cool and different to put in it, but don't want it to look cheezy. The space in the shifter is 7/8" in diameter. If I dremel'd out the inside a little, a quarter fits in there perfectly. I've also toyed with the ideas of tokens, as well as getting some kind of black furniture slider or something that I could glue in there (for some reason I think black would look better than silver in that spot).

Can anyone else think of any other things that would look cool in there? I don't really want an LED I don't think, and I'd prefer for it to either be racing or arcade related, but I'm not bound to that either!

A bottle cap modifed to fit.:D

An old school one of course or a beer cap if you so swing that way, I'm sure it could be dremel'd to size and glued in place.

Mylstar, I really need this part for my TURBO if the OP doesn't take it or if you have an extra! PLEASE! :)
 
Now that I can see this on an actual PC, it looks smaller than the size of the divet in my shifter. Am I reading the tape right that this is only .25" in diameter? Or is it 1.25"?
