i dont know about the knob, but the kit for the car wont look 100% right. there is no real over hang from the body. so u'll see the kit under the car. most cars have lips and stuff u can tuck the lights behind, the capri has 0. go figure, rally body and its completely flat underneath. this is also a reason we dont need underbody spoilers.

on the 91-93 there are places to hide it. Behind the rocker folds in between the framerails, and we do have a lip or spoiler under the front bumper. It often breaks and falls off but its supposed to be there. It helps draw more air through the radiator.

It is also my opinion that as much as I have considered it, it really does not belong on a capri

I think its awesome but I cant justify spending that much money on a something that fragile, I'm extremely rough on my car and would destroy it in short order
