These types of knobs are good for hot/cold temps. I personally like a knob with more weight than these plastic knobs. You get a lot nicer shift feel. I have a WC lathe werks titanium knob. Worth every penny. Had it for 3 years and still looks great.

I had a cobb knob for a while which would be similar to this. It was far too light feeling so i returned it.


PS> you should have posted this in the modification ideas section.

Wc lathe werks also has copolymer knobs with weighted inserts iirc, that would be the best of both worlds.

Grabbing a Titanium/metal shift knob that has been sitting in the sun for a day sucks

Duracon isn't metal...

I have that shift knob in the Legacy. I quite like how it feels in my hand, works with both pistol grip and ball grip. It doesn't get stupid hot in the summer. My only complaint is the tape on the back of the shift pattern sticker was not strong enough, but it was easily fixed with some crazy glue. If you are anywhere close to West Edmonton, send me a PM and come feel it.
