Shift knobs: What do you have?
 
Which aftermarket shift knobs do you have? What are the pros and cons to yours?

i have a upr billet shift knob, it looks nice and its good quality but if the car sits out in the sun it will burn a hole in your hand. doesnt bother me much because mine is garage kept.

Shift Knobs = YAWN.

I agree. Shift knobs is for if you either a) have done everything else possible to your car or b) don't have enough money to buy some other mod

I have the stock 35th anniversary/mach1/bullitt knob, and it sucks. Every morning, I freeze my palm off, and every summer, it leaves the damn shift pattern blistered into your palm. Lose lose situation. I want an MGW composite knob, but just cant see spending friggin 60 bucks for a shift knob. I think Id be too pissed at myself.

I have a FRPP shift knob. similar to the stock knob....its leather but has that billitt top that shows the shift pattern...I got the Tri-ax/FRPP from here as a package deal. :o

Ya should do a shiftknob upgrade when you put your MGW in it. Any other shifter is junk.

I bought one from autozone that I'm using right now.Carbon fiber grip with chrome.Looks pretty good and I love how it feels.I probally have 5 or 6 different ones that I switch out from time to time.

PureStang 12-12-2005 03:25 PM

Badfish 12-12-2005 04:12 PM
