I bought the leather shifter for the new TL, I had to slice the leather and roll it off the knob and roll it back onto my factory knob, then RESEW it back on.

Would that go for the wood shift knob also? I'm winning an auction on e-bay for one, for like $30 and it would suck to win and it does not fit. I called Acura but they were not sure and this was someone in the parts department. I also asked him (to see if he knew) would Type S CL rims fit on a 97 TL and he said he did not know that either and I told him they do because I saw the picture and he said oh . I'm like is that easy to work in parts or was the janitor answering the phone.

I was actually thinking about peeling it off.

well when i bought the wood shifter kknob the two fittings on the inside they sent me weren't the right size... one was too big and the other was too small... so i hollowed out the smaller one to hit in... and now the wood shifter goes nice wiht the wood finishing in my car... hehhhe not too much of a problem..

Just Curious if you guys ever came to a conclusion, as to whether a 99 and up woodgrain knob would fit on a 98-down TL 3.2? I know that the one person that tried had a 2.5, but how about a 3.2?
Also, just a thought, what if the threads are different, and you get a small adapter to go from the threads on the knob, onto the TL if it is different, I'm sure ACE Hardware, or Home Depot would have a small adapter that wouldn't be very noticeable, if it were only an inch or two long. Just a thought

does anybody have thae acura *A * on there wood shift knob??? if so i thought these knobs was life time warranty.. right? my *A* on the top of the knob is rubbing off.. does anybody have this problem?

it rubbed off because the clear finish layer above the white emblem rubs off very easily.
I have the same problem.
BTW you have to get the 96-98 shift knob for the 1st gens for a twist on twist off easy install. the other years (99 + ) will only work if you modify as others have suggested above.
