Favorite shift knob?
What is your favorite shift knob that you use / have seen / want to buy for your FRS or BRZ?
I have seen some sick ones in different build threads but thought it would be nice to have a single post where people can post pictures / shopping links / etc. |

Check here:
http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17153 The only one I have tried and own is the flossy grip tape shorty. I love it but I did not love the long wait to receive it |

There's so few good leather aftermarket knobs (IMHO) After having metal, plastic, and leather knobs, leather wins every single time. Grippy and doesn't burn/freeze your hand.
I've been tempted to buy a TRD knob and have it modified to match (blue stitching and possibly an engraved STI logo) but I'm lazy... |

I think the stock one is super nice. It's real comfortable for me, fits my hand nicely. But I just a flossy shift knob and love it. perfect size and feel, not too hot/too cold. I recommend their shift knobs if you are considering one. that or I hear good things about Lathe Werks

I seem to have no good pictures of it, but I love my Billet Pro Shop matte silver shift knob and short throw shifter combo. The knob is just the right size and feel, and the shifter has an excellent mechanical-feeling action, as opposed to the plasticky stock shifter. Feels like working the bolt on a rifle

I have the Circuit Soul Hard Style "knob" currently
http://store.circuitsoul.com/product...ted-shift-knob I love it. Nice and heavy. Long. It's great. I love the patina it's developing as well. I want one of these in all my cars for the rest of my life. I know it's not cheap. But other than the steering wheel it's what you touch the most on the car.
