I ordered an imitation Tommy Kaira shift knob (flat black) from grafixpressions.com.
Only 90.00. I really wanted the Tommy Kaira but they're back ordered...plus they scream "Steal Me". They offered a TK clone in many colors, also Titanium color to better match my car but I got black. I think it will blend in with the interior of the car better. I'm not a showy guy so subtle is better for me. Hopefully this black one that's an exact clone - sans Turtle, will satisfy me. Honestly I don't even know if I'll like it or not, so this will be a learning experience for me. I've never had a heavy shift knob before, many many articles on here solidly recommend them so I'm giving one a try. I may, in time, have it repainted another color and engraved. Shouldn't be too expensive to have that done. Last edited by Fountainhead; 08-29-2013 at 09:35 AM. |

Surely $90 is a typo? Right? |

I got the polymer because of the heat out here... I love it. Its deep set and when I rest my arm it is straight in line with the shifter.

Actually I should have said "Wait time for delivery is 4-6 weeks on some website in japan offering them for 201.00. Domestically there were a couple of websites offering the TK genuine for 250 and up. No way am I paying that much....I do really want one but that's too much for me.
