and damn this thing is a lot bigger than the plastic one!

my shifter is high as hell now. i need to cut it

btw, this thing is HEAVY

I replaced the one that came with my car for a racerboy (the one with the 4 buttons on it) , but the wires i had running to it cut , so I bought a new oem shift knob like you just bought. Yea , it's a bit bigger , but you get use to it. I actually like it better than an a/m one.

I just got mine today also. If you cut it let me know how it goes.

I love my stock leather shift knob. It feels alot more secure in your hand. I'm really happy with it.

Now if I can only find some damn rear leather seats, I'm set!

ive got some black ones if ur interested

I just cut my shifter down last weekend. I took off my stock shift knob and went with an OEM one off a 3g. It's a lot heavier and taller too. I used a sawzall to cut about 1.5" off the shifter, then had a local shop weld it back together. MUCH BETTER!!

www.machv.com they are $22 there. i got mine for $16 cuz they said it had a blemish on it, but i cant see anything

Hey, thanks man...i nicely avoided getting raped by mitsu...

also...

how exactly can you shorten the length of the shifter stick? I'd like to make mine lower, but dont know how to go about..

thanks!

^^^ read my post above....a sawzall cuts through damn near anything!! I guess you could use a hacksaw too, but it takes longer. Then just take it to any muffler or welding shop and have the weld it back together minus the piece you cut out.

I think if I remember correctly, the 1st gen shift knobs are lighter. A lot lighter.

The 1G knobs may be lighter, but the threads end a lot lower then the top of the knob. It is kinda shaped like a banana (or a penis). I don't recommend the 1G knob. Besides, a heavy knob is not a bad thing.

Dude, Boeing called. They want their wing back.
