for a really clean look, tap a larger hole then a smaller treaded hole inside it. It's easier to do if you have a blank slate, but it can be done.

I just threw that one on my BRZ. It was laying around since I got rid of my STi. Seems to fit fine.

Smaller and a bit lighter than stock... not sure if I like it more or less than the stock one.

He's probably not referring to weight saving. A lot of people have a preferences for light/heavy knobs.

I also bought it. Sent it to WC Lathe for the burnt look but this is what it looked like before.

I like the look/shape.. I however can't overlook how shows the upper portion of the shifter rod. I know its only because of the placement of REVERSE, but still...

I'm a bit of a stickler for things needing to fit perfectly and look like its made to go where its put. - That part aside this is one of my favorite looking shifters.

I do agree, it does bug me that there is a small portion of shifter rod exposed BUT when looking down on it it's not even noticeable. I was considering making the mounting hole a little bit bigger so it sink more but it's already super perfect with how tight it is, I'm not sure I want to tinker with that.
