That rubber ring is supposed to go under the shift boot collar (not the red shift knob collar but the actual shift boot collar)... Keeps the collar up and allows you to tighten the knob and keep it centered....

I actually just received this shift knob as well and nothing came in the package with it saying about what to do with the rubber ring. So it definitely goes under the shift boot to keep it up? I also heard under the red collar to stop vibrations! I honestly have no idea about where to put it and getting ready to install the very same shift knob know and wanna make sure i do it right! Thanks

It definitely doesn't go between the collar and the knob... mine is under the boot.

I'm liking the bamboo shift knob, it doesn't get freezing cold in the winter, and doesn't get blistering hot in the summer. I wasn't sure if i was going to like the height, but I'm preferring it over the stock height. I was also worried that the bamboo wouldn't hold up, but its very solid.

Is that a BamShifts knob? I just got mine a few weeks ago and am in love with it. Will post pics when I get off work. (and resurrect this sleeping thread)

Yes, I got this from BamShifts. Same here, its a very solid shift knob. The bamboo feels really good in hand.
Lets see those pics!
