Looking for a new shift knob
I am looking for a new shift knob for an automatic transmission. I liked the Ichibahn Cruz series but apparently they don't make those any more. After looking around The only other one I found that I like is this one
Shift Knob
But its a little pricy at around $90. Does anyone have any suggestions of something that will look good but won't break the wallet. I am looking for something that will complement my carbon fiber interior from VCFinishes.

I liked the look of the one you have Naich. I couldn't find it exactly but this was close. Will this one work and look ok in our car?

That looks ok. And I'm sure it would fit. It might take a little work, as all universal shift knobs. You can use tape to increase the shifter handle size, or fabricate a spacer. You'll have to probably do that for any universal knob to fit right.
I actually found my exact knob on ebay for $35 shipped. I just ordered a new one, because I lost the rubber piece that goes on the bottom of the knob, and also I scratched up the one I have pretty good after taking it off and on so much over the years. The same guy has 2 left. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-L...spagenameZWDVW

I just wanted to recomend against getting one of the ones with the um, rim thinger, around the button. If you have big hands like I do then it doesn't make it comfortable. Almost makes me want to park on the street so I don't have to shift into reverse in the morning. I think they designed mine for little kids and little people...

I ended up not getting that one. I got the levoc LV-461. Took some modification but it fits and looks great.
