Hello
Will a Trinidad 16A knob fit onto a gold Trinidad16?
Thank you

   If you're talking handle arm and grip knob, I say yes. If you're talking just the grip knob I still say yes. You may have to shim it with a couple of washers, but I doubt it. Basically it's just a color difference isn't it? From black to white?

I have worked on both reels, but don't have a sample to see, but my guess is the same as

Good luck.

That's a switch, most people swapping the handles are looking to dump the white handles. I replaced the white handles on my TranX's with black Stella handles.  You're the first I've heard of looking to go the other way!

Probably get a torium knob for less money, that will fit.

They look different at the base of the knob. Looks like a bearing at the base of the A model. Looks like the whole assembly would switch but the blade on the A model is shorter
Do what you can with that you have where you are
