I just have experienced this dilemma.
My 1979 KCD has an 8 MM thread.
My problem was the aftermarket brass knob adapter would not fit the shifter thread.
I took it all to my machinist, and he used an adjustable die to cut the plating off the shifter thread.
After 2 tweaks of the die, the shifter would fit the adapter threads nicely with that close of a tolerance.
