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

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?

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

Do they have them in black?

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????

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?

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

Thanks kostby! Thanks ebslopp, there's a few more pics on page 2 of my cardomain registry
