Hebi Bebi Dimensions?
 
I keep seeing a lot of buzz about the Tommy Kaira Hebi Bebi shift knob, and I'll admit that it looks like it probably has a good feel. I am considering having a custom version made (since I'm not really a fan of the turtle and would prefer to have the shift pattern on there), but I'd like for the dimensions and shape to be as accurate as possible.

Does anyone out there know the dimensions of an authentic Hebi Bebi? Or, if anyone personally has one, would you be willing to take some measurements for me?

Here's what I'm thinking would be most helpful
Overall Height
Height of Top
Diameter of Mushroom Top
Diameter of thinnest part of the Stem

You do not need to have one custom made. Just get a FatBoy. It is the exact copy.

In case you still want to go ahead with having one made, here you go:

Thanks Cooltoy. That looks dead on, but after checking out their site, it doesn't look like I could get the shift pattern or any other custom engraving done on it.

Still, something to think about.

No you can not, unless you get that done adter on your own.

Interesting how some folks like the look of an engraved shift pattern.. all I see there is something that will be a pain to ensure alignment and that I'll never look at anyway.

just get a sticker?

i second the fatboy suggestion. i have one, it's awesome, its a fraction of the price of a true tk knob, and actually heavier

OP, the TK Hebi Bebi has already been copied. Why don't you produce something new and exciting, a bit different? Maybe you will be able to sell a few of your shift knobs here.

Lathe Werks might be able to custom make you what you are looking for.... I had him make a custom shift knob for me.. though it was only marginally different than some of his canned offerings.
