I'm a firm believer of the M45 knob. I rock it in my G.

Ok, there is a bazillion of them. Which one is he talking about? Will all M45 auto-shift knobs fit the Z and is it easy to install?

After seeing a suggestion from Tractionless on another thread, I recently found a used M35 knob and trim ring on eBay that just arrived today. The leather has some miles on it and needs a little TLC, but it feels great in my hand! Keep in mind that I also installed a manual shift boot from a 6spd Z, so in that application it looks great! As far as I can tell, the M35/M45 knobs are the same, and installation is quite literally a snap.

Edit: This knob is from a 3rd Gen M. The trim ring is only applicable if you are using a shift boot, but one can probably get creative and make it work without.

35/45's are the same. I don't use the trim ring with the boot. I simply zip tied the boot to the white plastic part of the shifter and it bulges up to the knob leaving zero gap.

I'm not going to get into this Google, Ebay thing. OK. I've done my research and came here for more info. So I'll move on as usual and get info from another forum. Search this and search that is not what I'm looking for. Thanks.

Ok, so in Japan, Autech releases some upgraded shift knobs. Here is an example for the Nissan Serena, where you can clearly see how it's an upgrade from stock:

When I was researching first party accessories to buy for my car a couple years ago, I came across the Autech automatic shift knob for the 370Z (and I would have brought it if I had an automatic). I was trying to find it online again, but I am not having any luck so far.

Maybe it's not available any more? I wish I saved the part number. Anyways, I remember it was higher end looking than the stock one.

I will keep looking when I have time.

That was choice my second if what I did was not satisfactory to my tastes.
