Can we get over the drama here and just enjoy pics of some shift knobs? Who cares about this high school teenage girl-ish bs. Have a bad experience with a vendor, post a review and move on. If they're truly that bad, others will jump on the "F that vendor" boat and they'll lose tons of business. You've said yours and they've said theirs. I'm sick of getting notifications about the thread update and it's just you two bickering.

I'm curious about the Transparent Blue shift knob. What material is it, and how is it in 90-100 degree weather? How is it in -20 degrees? I like in MN and we get those temps. I don't want to burn my hand trying to shift, or have it freeze to the shift knob.


I'm going to just go ahead and post some pics.

It is steel, so it will get warm. If it's engraved and gets an additional clear coat that will help.

In addition if you'd really like I have some knobs coozies I had made a while back. If you want I can toss one in with your order.

I'd look to have engraving done. At least the gear locations, and likely something on the left and right sides.

You've posted a lot of pics...do you have a facebook or such with more pics? I'd like to get more ideas on what can be done with the Transparent Blue.

Thanks for the coozie...I'd try it out :cheers:

That's a lot of personal preference. Most people prefer the sphere. But there are a couple people, myself included that prefer the titan (the tear drop shape). It really is individual driven.

For an manual you prefer a cylinder? God that would drive me nuts haha.
I think a lot of it depends on how you drive the car, and the specific cars driving position.

The titan can be shifted very nicely from the side or from the top because of the rounded top. It's comfortable either way. It's very much personal preference haha. This is the titan in an ST, it fits that car way better than the sphere in my opinion.

I can agree with that. Definitely depends on preference and the car. Just can't imagine it in the S550 haha. I guess I just prefer a nice smooth ball in my hand over a shaft....Errrr :lol:
