TL-S Blackwood Owners - Shift Knob

Have any of you TL-S Blackwood owners changed out your shift knob?

If so, what knob did you decide to go with?

I have the blackwood steering wheel...but since there is no blackwood shift knob available from Acura, I thought I'd find out what you all are up to...

I just stuck with the original leather knob that has the "S" on it.

One of many reason why I picked the Type-S was because of the knob. Exclusivity is better than anonymity with other aftermarket stuff.

I actually like the Type S knob. Some aftermarket knobs look to plain. The perforated leather and red 'S' goes good with the interior

especially if you have the perforated steering wheel to match

Perfect Razo

Hey Guys! Are you looking for a nice replacement for your shiftknob, try this razo executive shiftgate knob. I replaced my stock "Type S" knob with this and it looks tight. The wood grain pattern on the knob itself is almost identical to the pattern found in the ebony interior: http://www.imotorgear.com/product.as...d=18050000P038

No way in hell I would ever switch it out. I love the look of it, and the way it fits in my hand.

Besides, EVERYONE asks me how much I paid for it, automatically assuming it's aftermarket. When I tell 'em it was factory, they always go, "Holy shit, that looks sweet."

Now why would I waste money to switch out something I love, and everyone else likes?
