Default Real happy with MGD shifter knob

Before I installed the the gripper knob, I felt like I was always reaching for the stick, but now, it's right where is belongs. Hard to explain, but my shifts are more positive, and a lot more confortable. The fact that it looks great too makes it all so sweet. I've also got their radio knob, accessory plug, and parking brake handle, and they work and look great. Nice folks to deal with too. The only thing I bought and don't like is the console insert. Looks really nice, but it makes the two holes for the cups holders too small.

I have heard great things about their knobs. Most are people saying that the best thing about the knob is it doesn't get scorching hot, in the sun.

I have an anodized one with fins. Did it matte silver for that reason. Cool

If their knob was polished, I would have bought it in a hearbeat but....

I had that knob too, and loved it.
Attached is a picture after install.
Also attached is the custom knob I had made, that made me remove the MGW.
