I need a new shift knob...

[yn08_teg]

Hi guys,

So, the OEM knob that came with my car is scratched a hell so I've decided to go for a replacement. However, rather than replace it with another OEM I am looking into aftermarket ones.

I like the look of the Skunk2 knob. I think something silver or black, as opposed to the Neo ones. Does anyone have any other recommendations?

Cheers

I had a Skunk2 and didn't really like it. So I bought a titanium Seeker one, much much prefer the Seeker. Feels much better in the hand. It's got like a purply tinge to it as well so looks awesome.

Now that does look nice.

Is the DC5 a 10x1.5 fitment?

I've got the Skunk2 one, came on the car and I'm happy with it. I also recommend the Tegiwa short shifter and bushings if you are looking to upgrade the shifter feel

I had a Skunk2 weighted one originally and it was lovely through the gears on an oem shifter, I moved to a Ktuned one which worked well with their billet shifter.
I‘m on a buddyclub one now, second one of the same shifter and it‘s well nice on a shorter shifter like the buddyclub one and is lovely on my B&M modded shifter. It‘s not weighted but it just feels great to me

I currently have this, it's pretty comfy to use and looks cool.

I've got an ARC one I'm trying to weigh up whether to sell or not.

I love my heavy spherical Blox shift knob. Bought from H'Tune I think. Sorry no picture.

If you decide you want an OEM one I have a good condition one. £20 plus postage.

Great minds think alike :green: :green: . I've got one too and they are a great weighty shift.

The only gearknob I would replace my skunk 2 one with is the j's racing titanium one but i can't justify the bloody price on that thing

I am still looking through the various options. Just seen the J's racing knob and it is a thing of beauty but I'm not prepared to pay that for it!

The ARC one also looks really nice, but just getting hold of one looks like it will be tricky

I've got an ARC one sitting in my bedroom doing naff all! Lol. They're easy enough to find and buy but they cost loads for a gear knob lol!

I have a mugen one and like it, was going to sell it but not found the time to remove it and dig out the oem one

+1 for Skunk2

I'll have some OEM style ones soon in anodised silver and black, they are the same OEM shape but the difference is that I have had some nuts machined up so there is a seemless transition from the gearknob into the nut, they look really nice

They will be similar prices to skunk 2 knobs but then they are made locally here within the UK, so even though the price is top end you can sleep easy at night knowing you are supporting local businesses

Just bought myself a Spoon Duracon gearknob for winter that‘s in the post as the K-Tuned function form one gets a bit cold on the hand, especially today!

Both great choices, Spoon one has a bit of a retro look about it...
