Manual Shift Knobs

[Quiksurf]

i was looking for a cheap shift knob solution. surprise the dealer was cheaper than any aftermarket knob i could find, lacks style, but its a shifter.
i think retail for the knob is like $16.00

The cheapest shift knob I could find out of my 3 local dealers is $22, right now I have some electrical tape on the splines with a deep 16 MM socket pressed on over it for a shift knob, works for me.

I had an aftermarket one that had a fabric that looked like Carbon Fiber. It started to pull out of the seam and I removed the fabric. I recently covered my custom console with a brown fake leather material from Wal-Mart and took a piece of scrap, some spray adhesive and a few choice words (LOL) and applied the material where the CF was - now it matches my interior . . .

Someone on here just had a set off drilled out pool balls in every color.

May check the buy/sell forums.

I thought about the pool ball and i have a spare 11 and 10 ball, (red and blue striped for you non pool players), but i was weary to drill it without a drill press. minute and a half epoxy will make anything stick for a good while. The OE one fits tight. i'll post the oe list price from my dealer when i check the receipt. some dealers charge a matrix price where the markups are jacked up for certain dollar amounts. like the stuff under 20 bucks can get jacked up like 120% over cost. crazy you know

I have a cue ball and a 4 ball (solid white and purple) the 4 ball is on my shifter now. I gave them to my dad and told him the tap size and he had them machined for me they screw on so I can change between them whenever I want

ive made a couple in my shop class out of aluminum for other people, they came out nice and were free.....should have charged them for em haha. id like to do the 8 ball when i get my new truck which the main requirement will be 5spd.......and runs and looks nice.....

the updated factory knob was 16.37 list and is kinds plain and ugly, but it fits really tight

Personally I like the factory FX4 shift knob.
