So I am thinking of getting a new shift knob pretty soon because my stock one is showing some signs of wear.. Just wondering what your guys thoughts are on aftermarket knobs, and what works well with our interiors.. I did a quick search and found Bearcats knob which I thought looked pretty good..



You guys have any other options in your cars? Or any others that you think look good? How do the knobs you like effect performance (weight, feel), and is there any drawbacks (heat, etc..)?

 

There is about a million options. My advice is right here.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Np174_zZ4Nc

Best advice Evaaar! There is just too many options...OEM and aftermarket both.

 

HAHA.. Ok ok

 

This will probably gross you out...but to show you how far you can go out with a shift knob...this is what I use personally. Tallk about old school...lol. I present...the old school....T-handle. lol. One of the few knobs I have had on here. Go ahead guys....I have my flame suit on! lol. I still dont care....it works well for me and thats what counts to me.

 

Not exactly my style, but it definitely looks like it would be fun to drive with..

You can hold on for dear life when you downshift.. LOL

Thanks for the pic..

 

HUMPTY says JUST GRAB THEM IN DA BISCUITS. and geting busy in a B.K. bathroom.

 

^ Dude, haven't seen this video in awhile --> i remembered having this "tape" back in the day. I think it was "sex packets" album...hilarious.

To the OP, go for the style you'd be happy with (since you're the one that's gonna be seeing it everyday)...as mentioned before, sooo many to choose from. I personally like the momo picture you put up, but then again, that's just my

 

Now thats how I roll. Look's OK on the auto. But it performs perfectly on the MT6. Stick it to em!!!

This is the one that I prefer and use. End of story.

 

So far this knob has worked out for me

 

I am rocking a gun metal.. 5 speed type r style shift knob... Says
1 3 5
2 4 R

But it is nice and comfy, gets extremely cold when it's cold out, and likewise gets extremely hot when it's hot out

I have been contemplating getting the Mugen shiftknob for auto (heeltoeauto.com)

 

can you please tell us where to buy these knobs?

 

Pass,

I got my Momo shift knob on Ebay for $88. Just search Momo shift knobs on Ebay. This one is similar to the first picture in this thread. I really like it because it accents the trim on the center console.

 

hmm this thread is making me want to put my ap1 s2000 shift knob on.. i still have it from my old car...

 

i have exactly same one Steven Bell has. The silver color match other stuff in ur car.

 

same here...

steve are you still digging the extra faux fibre kit, or is it overkill??

 

hey pffpffpass, thanks fo the props. I honestly don't remember posting that pic - - too old; memory's shot.

Anyhow, the "CF" looks pretty good to the stock CF trim. I'm pretty happy. Chose between the Alum/Leather knob Steven Bell has and this one. I preferred the "CF".

 

I think I like the silver Momo the best.. Plus that my car is SSM..

 

Vinn, I'm absolutely still lovin' it for sure. You know, every time I go to the dealership, the service writers comment on how good the CF looks. I realized the pictures I originally posted were taken with the flash on, so they're alittle bright. I need to take some pictures in natural light.

By the way, Bearcat's Momo shifter looks awesome too.

 

Hey guys,

were do you recommend i should go to buy a shiftknob for a 6-speed 06 TL?I prefer a simple round one with weight.

The Big White 21: checkout the skunk2 one then... believe you can find that one everywhere

SENSUAL SCORPION FIXED

 

this shift knob is the best match for me!!!!.........it goes perfectly with my carbon fiber dash kit which i can also get for anyone thats interested............price would be about $250..........the shift knob i got from crowderscustomizing.com it was about $85.00................and it was very easy to install...................good luck people!!!!!...........

 

thanx stillhere153

 

4G TL knob has a button.

They can't use these (Momo) Knobs.

 

this is my RAZO =)

 

if you want weight and a 6spd shift knob.. go with the skunk2 shift knob, just during hot days especially in the summer be sure to cover it with something because it gets VERY HOT

had it on my rsx for two years.. loved it, it gave better throws for shifts. I still have it here on my desk, might slap it on my car when I have the chance

 

Ervin, I like your shift knob too. I've never seen that one before.

 

what is the thread pattern on the auto knob? i'd love to just throw a nice titanium ARC knob on it... if it threads right in that is.

 

thanks i love this shift nob. it feels really good.

 

I cant post the picture because of network blocks but if you click the link in my sig, you will see the MOMO shift knob I went with.

 

I'll post up it up for ya!

 

Thanks man!

 

^^^ is that with a short shifter? thats waaay lower than my shift knob! looks good!

 

It does in fact have the short shifter (absolutely the greatest mod to this car on the planet) The MOMO knob is also countersunk so the shift lever goes all the way up to the top of the knob.

You also want to look at the weight of the knob. The heavier it is, the less effort to shift. For instance, mine is seriously heavy and i merely have to flick my wrist and its in gear....

 

I've got this shift knob for my 6mt



it gets cold in the winter but I like the look...also wanted the momo cf knob like bearcat's

there's a lot of inspiration in this thread!

 

hmm i may have to look into the short shifter for xmas!! right now I have an ap1 s2000 shift knob from my old car in my TL .. reminds me of my old s2000 lol

 

Im telling you man, you will be AMAZED at the difference it makes...

Here... check this out.

Wow, I like this one. Simple and clean. Where did you get it?
