Your '58 should have a Delco distributor. There should be a Delco tag on the distributor body with the model number on it, it will be a 7 digit number. I've attached a picture of a similar Delco distributor showing the tag. The 7 digit number will start at the left side of the tag.
Once we have that number, we will know for sure what distributor you have. I will say that Pertronix's website is well known for having the Studebaker (and thus the '57/'58 Packard) applications screwed up. On this part of the Pertronix online catalog here: Pertronix 11584, the catalog says its for a '58 Studebaker 8 cylinder but also says its for a Prestolite. That could not be, because the Prestolite was not used on the V8 until 1962. Once we have your distributor number, maybe we can figure this out.

Ok, I dug into the Studebaker/Packard parts manuals. For all 1958 Studebaker and Packard, the manuals show p/n 1545238 for the two radio knobs. The parts manuals unfortunately do not give the color of the knobs.
Where I saw p/n 1545238 as being black was in the Studebaker International catalog (they even have a picture), but I'm starting to question whether this is correct. I believe they have the wrong p/n on the picture and description. I did look at some pictures of several '58 Studebakers and they all had white knobs. Unfortunately, I don't have any of these knobs in inventory.

Jared, are you looking for a white knob as shown in the picture, or a black knob? Part number 1545238 looks to be a black knob.

Rollerball, is that number you posted supposed to be the Studebaker/Packard part number? If so, you are missing one digit. If it's a 154-series part (which sounds right for the year range), it would be 154xxxx.
