Which shift knob should be on a console auto 69 Charger. The chrome one with the center push button or the wood grain "roundish" one with the center push button?

Thanks

my car has the woodgrain which is original to it. My aunt bought the car new in 69.

shows sales brocures with either.
wood grain cover on the center console got wood knob.
chrome cover got chrome knob.

Sometimes the brochures are misleading, because the cars are pre-production or even re-touched photos of least year's car.
Pretty sure my brother's '69 Charger (regular 383 car) had the chrome console top & knob like Dad's '66 Sport Fury, but that was a long time ago so I could be mistaken; maybe the woodgrain was an SE thing?
My '69 Chargers were column AT = no help here.

all '69 B-body consoles should have the woodgrain top plate

the console automatic "shift knob" can be woodgrain or chrome, but there is probably some rhyme or reason what should be in what car based on assembly plant, model, SPD, and/or other detail
