You can get weight out of an SS knob that isn't replicable with delrin or polymers. It's a matter of valuing highest quality over comfort.

I've had billet knobs in all of my cars with no issues. Sunscreens work wonders. The only time the knobs have ever bothered me is when it's <20*F during the winter. But, I usually have gloves on anyway.

WC Knobs sit very low. I would always smack the knob with my delrin reverse lockout so I honestly wouldn't want to smack metal on metal like that everytime I put it in reverse.

Look up any Delrin knob, it's a thermo-neutral plastic that wont get too cold or hot and has weight similar to ceramic.

Shouldn't be a problem with this since our R Lock is the same as the OEM. It WC Lathewerk shift knobs work with the OEM reverse lockout, than it will work with our R Lock.

So I was doing some spirited driving yesterday, holding my leather TRD shift knob firmly and I began to think... "man, it would sure be nice if this was heavier... @Raceseng would be the perfect guys to make a weighted leather knob."
