I'm about to get a Short Shifter (I haven't really decided on the brand for this either, but I'll prolly get B&M). And I want to get a new shift knob w/the short shifter. Does anyone have any input into any particular preference of shift knob? I want one that will fit my hand nicely (which should help in my shifting). So I'm leaning toward a round/ball shaped shifter. I also want one that won't get hot if it's out in the sun. Any suggestions?

It's a knock off of Momo's Race Air Leather knob. It's heavy, so it'll help with momentum when you're shifting with a short shifter. Only $19 off of eBay.

I don't remember, but it think it did got kinda warm during the summer. Just carry around a small towel or something and throw it over the knob when you park it in the sun.

i like the B&M shift knob actually. had to do a lot of work to get rid of all the rattling though.

i like my razo 300g shift knob. weight and feel is perfect. you can get it in 200g/300g/400g. it has a nice gunmetal w/ carbon fiber. only thing is it does get hot if you park it in the sun.

Mine is stock also.
It`s verry functional and fits my hand perfectly, looks good, so why change?

I'm looking to change because I want one that fits my hand better. I'm not sure yet but I think a round shift knob would work better for me. I guess I should hit up a shop around here and grip the various styles to see which one will work the best for me....

Razo 200,300,400 g series is nice...i have a 400g and it fits perfect with my TWM SS :D very very hard to misshift too so no worry about that
