Re: What is the best Quality Shift Knob for the price

Sweet, those are some decent looking knobs. I am just basically looking for something simple, not flashy, maybe more of a stick shape instead of a knob. I'm thinking I want it black to go better with the tan/grey interior of my car.

I figured pretty much everything is gonna work as long as it screws on right. I had previously tried these kinds from Autozone on my Trans Am, where you use alan screws to basically hold it onto the stick, and those things are crap. I mean my T/A was an auto so I wasn't doing much hard shifting , and the thing would get loose putting it into drive, so I wanna stay away from that kind. I could only imagine how well that kind of knob would work now that I'm driving a stick, not so well I think.

The screw on kind is what I'm looking for I think though, but I was just thinking it best to steer clear of a Murray's or Autozone, during my search.

I'll probably browse around ebay tonight and see what I can find, and you can usually find a decent deal there, and I don't even have to leave my comfy seat.

I am liking the look of that Ichibahn knob maybe I'll see about that gun metal gray looking one there in the picture actually. Have to look around though.

And about the shift plate thing, yeah that's exactly what I meant, something that replaces the boot around the stick, and has the gears labeled like in the Lambo. I was just thinking of maybe seeing how it might look. I am actually hoping they make a mod like that for a cav, if they don't they should.

Thanks for your input guys and the sites, appreciated.
