Hi looking to attach vinyl/leatherette to plastic. Specifically a shift knob - https://imgur.com/a/Ce04PeU. Wondering what the best adhesive to use is?

That black perforated looking leather has been removed https://imgur.com/a/klH1xsp. I'm also not quite sure how the manufacturer did that creasing that goes over the edge of the white piece that the vinyl will attach to - any ideas there?

I imagine I'm not going to get this perfect so time to readjust and such would be nice. Probably should stay flexible as it will be continuously grabbed and be in a hot/cold temp environment inside of a car.
