shift knob question

DR_

This reduces movement a lot.

Mount the tranny so your knob doesn't wiggle?

i rest my hand next to it since theres really no elbow rest between seats but i try not to leave my hand on it. just like taking my left foot and keeping it flat on the floor when im on the highway in 6th usually would rest my foot on it in my civic

The lack of arm rest in this car annoys me. Why is the e-brake on the left side of the console? WHY?! The passenger does NOT deserve an armrest more than I do.




Actually, I do know why it is, because you couldn't shift with a drink in the onegoddamncupholder if it were switched around.


In the end. Poor design. /rant.

The one cup holder complaint I get. My arm rest is the center console - the passenger doesn't get one. Or drive with two hands cause racecar

If my arm is on the center console, it's an odd feeling/difficult almost to shift. My arm rests on the e-brake, because that's where the armrest should be.

JARblue

If I'm shifting, my arm isn't resting on anything. If my arm is resting, it sits comfortably on the lid of the center console, although I occasionally open the lid on accident.

FWIW, this is the first car I've ever owned where I felt more comfortable driving with both hands on the steering wheel.

Never thought about the arm rest as an issue until you brought it up. So on my drive home, I paid attention to this. Similar to you, I place my elbow on soft part of center console and then wrist/hand rests on top of e-brake.

It actually works okay, as the top of the e-brake is flat and it's level with the center console. Maybe a simple mod of attaching a thin/flat soft piece of material on the e-brake would make it feel more like a real arm rest.

I rest my hand either on the steering wheel or shift-knob... thus no need an arm rest...

what I would like, however, is a little holder that can hold my bluetooth headset.

And yes, two hands is almost a must. Every little line, rut, painted lines on the road jerks the damn thing.

Though, sometimes I just do it one handed (you know what I mean)... I'm surprised I haven't been pulled over for suspicion of DUI at some points on the freeway where it grabs the car.
