Post pics of your shift knob.

Here's mine, taken on my crappy camera, it's just an APC, but it feels solid, and I didn't have $80 for a Momo.

Share yours.

How did you fix that gap? I have that gap thing with my new knob. It keeps coming loose too, I have to keep tightening the screws.

Hepnotic, If you feel underneath the chrome ring gator there is a nylon member just pull it up, if it feels tough just pull harder (excuse the pun) but it will move up in the end. The feel of the Momo Raptor knob is alot better than stock easier to grip and select etc and looks alot better. I tried vertually the complete Momo range and the Raptor was the best.

mine is a stock knob but just didn't come stock in our cars. the seams on the factory knobs dug into my hand so i wanted to get rid of it yet keep the 6-speed pattern in the top of the knob and the matrix was the only knob i could find and with the deal i got on it i couldn't pass it up.

Got it off of eBay. Very comfortable.

The sun has to be directly on the knob for a while to heat it up, and that doesn't seem to happen very often. You can just keep a little detailing towel in the car and put it over the knob if you're worried about it.
