Does anyone have a aftermarket shift knob for 04 at tl?

 

I've got the Acura wood shifter. Not really aftermarket, I guess, since it's Acura.

Some people don't like it for any or all of the following reasons: it's a bitch to put on, it has a chrome ring that doesn't match the brushed metal on the shift stem, it doesn't completely cover the threads, it's "too much wood" in the console for some people's tastes.

To which I say: my salesman put it on, I noticed the chrome ring and the exposed threads for like 5 seconds and have not since given it a second thought, and the whole point for me was to get more wood in the car!

You can get it online for around $90, much less than most dealers charge.

There may be other options in the after market, I dunno.

 

There is wood plus the alum trim on the 04?

 

There is plood plus alum with the Parchment and Camel interiors, not with the Ebony or Quartz, which have some sort of carbon fiber look instead of the plood.

 

 

Here is a pic of my interior with the Acura wood shift knob:


I have not noticed the threads nor has the chrome bothered me.
