Sport leather shift knob

Looking to see if anyone got the leather perforated shift knob for their TL or if it is worth the "upgrade" enhance look.

Part # 08U92-TL2-210

Looks like it also fit the the TSX as well.

I feel like you can spend $100 better elsewhere.

$100 gets you the aluminum brake pedal and dead pedal with money to spare. The gas pedal is $200, but looks a million times better than stock.

Yes gas pedal by far is the most expensive but they do look much better than stock and all parts are OEM, they fit perfectly on my 2012 Acura TL.

So have you received your parts? I'm curious about 46545-SEP-A81 Cover Set, Pedal (AT) being that it's only $12 and designed for the CRZ, whether or not it's a 100% fit.

If that's true I wonder if they have the manual trans parts and if they're as cheap?

That accelerator pedal is nice but pretty expensive.. I'm probably going to just end up with this:

I have the perforated leather shift knob and in hindsight I would stick with the one that came with the car. The perforated knob looks good and the white stitching matches other parts of the car (steering wheel, seats), but the leather does not as soft as the original.

Something tells me a $12 pedal set is not going to be the same as the ~$280 pedal set...

$300 for pedals? Nah. I bought mine for $49 three years and about 120,000 miles ago and they're just fine to this day. It doesn't look like they're still available, but the point is that you don't have to spend $300 to get a quality pedal set. See my thread from then.

Arguable. I would much rather have OEM parts than aftermarket ones that permanently modify my stock set. I'm sure had I spent more time I could have found the gas pedal used and gotten it for cheaper.

I bought it, one of the first things I got for my car. If you have the Ebony Milano interior...I think it's a worthwhile purchase. It matches perfectly with the white stitching on the tech seats. Much better than the stock one for sure, which I felt had more of a plastic like leather look/feel to it.

It's $115, and genuine parts. This is what came on the TSX SE. It doesn't have the ridiculously expensive $200 accelerator, but for $115 genuine honda, who's complaining?

User said $12 and from a Honda CRZ...

What I purchased is from the TSX SE, it's the pedal assembly from it and the aluminum piece for the gas pedal is not available for purchase separately. Trust me, I looked.

What you're linking to in the eBay auction is 'Honda Access' which is for the European/Japanese markets where the TSX is the Accord. You'll also note that the gas pedal is not mounted to anything and requires drilling the stock pedal.
