type-s owners.....shift knob question

I'll reply because I feel sorry for you.

I have a Type S and have no idea what you are talking about.

I have an auto that may be why.

I think the "Type S" is actually printed on the back of the clear plastic.

Pop it out and see.

It's most likely moulded directly into the entire piece of plastic.

The emblem on the top of the auto shift knob is most likely an epoxy dome making the logo part of that "clear rubbery" part. I'm not 100% but I think thats how it is.
