That really looks great! I replaced mine a few weeks back as well, because my stock one was wearing out.

Heres mine!

Thanks for the comments

I will take a few different angle shots for those that requested them. I liked the original, but it was worked, and I bought a wood with the acura logo that this one replaced. The over all feels helps me cope when I go through shift withdraw. I was hesitant to go with a polished over satin or titanium finish, but I am very happy with the outcome. The leather front grip was a nice touch.

It has a high or low setting, the High setting had it about where the stock one fit. I took it out and adjusted it to the low setting, and its almost plush, so Im very happy with it.

Sorry Knox, a friend of mine with a TL took it off my hands. I believe another few members here have them, since the wood matches the wood with the partchment interior. I bought it off ebay awhile back for around 40 bucks. It was OEM stuff, but I didnt like the gold Acura symbol, to bling for me.

very simple. just unscrew the oem knob (have to turn it with force) and replace it with aftermarket knob.

what he said...unscrew the original, then on this type knob, you select the adapter, then screw it right on, its self threading.

I almost bought that one months ago! Decided against it as it doesn't really flow with the car, but I really like the agressive look. Please post pics of it installed!

Thats one of the Momo's I ordered but sent back for the Razo, I really liked the design but it didnt look good in my AT and I couldnt get the damned thing to fit very good. Still totally dig that one, I think I paid 83 for it, so it was 30 bucks more than the razo I went with. Glad someone came through, where I failed miserably...but I am still happy with what I ended with. (though I just saw on Razo's site they are releasing a more muted titanium finish soon )

Oh, and Mugen shift knobs, here ya go(though Im not crazy about them..not the usual Mugen good lookin stuff IMO)

I love the look of the Momo, but its huge! If I were to switch I would prefer something with a lower profile than stock, not taller. Same to the 'tube' style shifters. Its so hard to find a good AT replacement knob!

I'll just stick with stock for now.

I just put this new knob in my 06 5AT Silver TSX. Matches the Blue Ambient Light very nicely, and very subtle. Love it.

Had to use an adapter that came with the knob but install was easy.
