Looks good! Where did you order it from and how much?

BTW, what is diameter of stock shift knob?

@Irace86

Thanks for following up with pictures and opinion. Can you measure the diameter of the reverse lock out? Better yet, can you place both facing each other touching? I'm curious if it's wider than stock or not. The Raceseng RLO is about 1-2mm larger and doesn't fit certain shift knobs.

How does the weight/heft of the piece feel? Is that gray lock pin annoying? Looks like the head piece would stick out quite a bit.

It also was inexpensive, also has a stock size and smooth curves but with some nice camber accents. Lastly, I wanted to take a risk to check out this vendor to review a product because I want some of the other products. Pics:

Link?

When I measured with a caliper the stock RLO top was variable in its width kinda oval but within a milimeter or so it was 19mm. This RLO was a milimeter smaller or less but not bigger.

That isnt a lock pin. It is the tool suppied to punch out the stock lock pin so you dont have to go buy a punch. Nice addition IMO.

Ps. I bought all the other products...gauge rings, bezels, shift knob. Reviews to come when they come in.

Looks like a great piece! !! i'm going to buy the stainless steel one. I'm a little sick of my red Raceseng one so if anyone is interested i'll probably list it for sale here eventually.

@Irace86

Did you get that ball looking shift knob from the same seller? If so let me know how the shift knob and reverse lockout work together, if they make a "click" noise when they touch each other during engagement. Just picked up the revere lockout per your post btw haha.

stevesnj · 02-29-2016, 07:46 PM

Put some lettering on my knob stripes for some nice detail touch

Anyone find a leather shift knob? I like the stock one, but would like a bigger one.

This is basically what I've been looking for as well, bump

Does anyone know if there is another manufacture besides Baruta who makes top and bottom replacements for the stock knob, preferentially out of anodized aluminum? Also, at a reasonable price.

Got some parts in. Other items Ill review in a different thread. As for the shift knob:

--it sits higher than the pics from the website. I might shorten my shaft.
--it doesnt hit the reverse lockout when reversing. There is a 1cm gap.
--it feels great in the hand in terms of smoothness and the size is close to stock. As a guy with small hands this is fine but it would be nice if it was larger.
--sti logo i didn't expect it to be there. It faced perfectly in the wrong direction. Not a big deal because i prefer no logos.
--the bottom edge could have been cambered for a better feel but the 90 degree edge isnt sharp so that is good.
--adapter for A/T
--overall im happy. Definitely a decent product for the price
