You know there's more than 1 website that sells the blox ones right?

Personally I think that the OEM ones are very comfortable.

ive been to 3 allready, ordered em and so far every time i get a phone call about them being back ordered or "defective"
been through weaksauce and 2 ebay sellers.
i have the h22 swap and along with the shifter came the knob and its kinda awkward feeling and the leather is worn and its all haggard looking.

I have to honestly say that this is one of the oddest questions that I have seen on here. There are probably millions of different shift knobs out there and asking people which one YOU should get is........odd. Unless you are just asking opinions on certain knobs and I read it wrong.

I have switched mine to about 10 different ones and have only had my car for about a year. I have settled on the Skunk2 weighted one for the longest so far, but am going to switch it again soon more than likely.

Find one that you like or a couple and just switch them out when you get bored.

Are you going to be the one to use/look at every day or are we? Pick the one you like, not what is popular. Your wallet will thank you in the future. Unless you are like me and have 10 (and still growing) and can't decide then your wallet is constantly crying.

i know the sytle i want.
and yes u read it wrong i just wanted to knob the feedback of each of these products as a factor of narrowing down the options then choosing what i want with the combination of your opinions/exerience,internet obtained information and physical appearance.
i dont like spending money then not liking somthing and spending more.
i wanna make sure what u purchase is not only what i like but very efficient.
thanks!

I see. I did read into it wrong then, eh?

In that case, like I said, I have the skunk2 anniversary one in my collection of shift knobs. It is one of my favorite ones so far. It is real comfortable, heavy, and very sturdy. The only thing I don't like about it is it gets very hot on hot days and very cold on cold days. It was freezing this morning driving to my warehouse and the knob was like I just took it out of the freezer and threw it on the shifter.

I agree that the JDM one is too high. I am not a fan of that look. I like the smaller ones like the skunk2 and the Blox one that you posted.

Hmm. Yes the cold wouldn't get you in the summer, but the heat definitely would. I have had the shifter knob too hot to touch as well. Kind of like when your seat belt metal burns the crap out of your hand. Same concept. Stings like a son-of-a. Not a permanent burn but stings none the less. Still didn't deter me from keeping it on, just an annoyance.


Yeah, they look to be the same shape only a slightly different weight. I was surprised how heavy this one was when I got it. You should be happy with the Blox.
