Pics of new MOMO Race Airleather Shift Knob

[Psychobroker]

I just took a few pics of my MOMO shift knob I received last week. I ordered it through LTB Motorsport.com (brand new for $39 + s/h):>I love the feel of cold aluminum in the morning! (Actually, this was a pleasant, unexpected suprise over the stock *cough* fake metal *cough* overpriced/$150 *cough* GT knob)EDIT: Damn, I really need to break down and pick up a bottle of solvent. That overspray on my cig lighter housing is ANNOYING me!

I had one very similar to that Psycho, but mine was silver with blue leather. I didn't quite liked how it felt and I changed it to a Momo sphere. The polished parts of it go better with the interior I thought and it has a small ring of blue leather around the center. Here is a pic of it:

Very nice Triton.

Looks really nice, psycho!I'd really like one of those Momo knobs, but I'm afraid that when I drop my car off at the shop, the guy moving the car won't be able to figure out the shift pattern due to the semi-unusual six-speed. Although there are many six-speeds out there, most people have never driven one and everyone defaults to the standard shift-tree.

Good point frosty. To solve this, just make a small sketch of the shift pattern and tape it to the knob and/or base for those times. Quote »Momo sphereYep, I've seen yours before Triton - very nice indeed. It just wouldn't match my scheme, though. I love the feel of these airmetal knobs...much more ergonomic than the stock knob, and I thought THAT was pretty good. Plus, I just couldn't pass up $39 USD. I feel it's a perfect fit in more ways than one. EDIT: Quote »silver with blue leatherI think you're talking about these:I didn't like the look of the blue one, and I think the metal is actually different. Or, I could just be thinking this because they're named "Airleather Alloy" as opposed to "Airleather Metal"

The shift knob looks good, i'm goin get pedals and a knob as soon as i decide on a interior color

[Triton]

I know what you mean, for $39 that's a great deal. The pic you posted is the one I had before I switched.

Looks really good there, is that the original shifter boot?

[Triton]

Yes, it's the original boot in both of our cars.

[Mavrik]

Do they have them in black?

[Psychobroker]

Heya Mav,If you're asking about the Airleather knobs, yes they have them in silver alloy w/ top-half, full black leather, or carbon fiber, but they go for $75-$80 USD:half:full:CF:LTB Motorsport's priceI don't think they have them in black alloy.

does that leather soak up sweat and get all nasty after a while????

[Psychobroker]

Well, I suppose if you have leaky palms you might have a problem Other than that, none of the leather shift knobs I've ever owned have ever had sweat-related issues.

Psychobroker, I love what you did with your speaker grills! Do you have more pics of that?

[kostby]

Those symbols you put on the panel with the fan and a/c controls are awesome!
