Billetworkz shift knob

I really love mine but I too would have preferred one slightly weighted. The great thing is you can get a Mustang boot retainer that will screw to the bottom of the shifter threads to be the lock nut and it looks damn good.

 

i want updates!

 

really.....loving it. link to part/pics please? I did order a weighted one.

 

I got the weighted. took three weeks, worth the wait. I will be getting the rubber grommet soon.

 

Same... Rather not have rubber grommet if something out there is cleaner look

 

The grommet was okay, esp for the cost, but this is just superior:

Here's a better pic that I snapped for @7r41lbr34k3r :

 

Where did you get it?

 

Near the bottom of the 1st Post:

There were a couple versions posted by other folks that I tried. Either I could not get a clean print or it didn't fasten in well.

This one looks good, fits perfectly, and feels great.

 

thanks

 

I'm happy with these old school knobs I picked up last year! Frank

 

Not a great shot of the retainer but this is the knob installed. The retainer is literally any Mustang boot retainer (it was a generic ebay listing) because they share the thread pitch. I'll see if I can snap a shot of the retainer a little better in the morning.

 

hard to install? how do you install?

 

Beautiful sir

 

You need access to the underside of the retainer to ziptie the boot in place so you do have to lift the entire center console top piece. It's all just push clips so just pull up around the shifter and work your way back. Once that's up, lift enough to clip the ziptie holding the boot to the OEM retainer, unscrew factory knob (retainer comes off with it), screw on new retainer then knob, clock the knob and use new retainer as lock nut (I also hit mine with a dab of blue threadlocker), then ziptie the boot to the new retainer and reinstall the console.

You will want like 8" but super thin zipties so you can't feel the head through the boot. To get the boot right, you'll want to pull the boot all the way up over the new knob and it'll get stuck on the retainer. Just ziptie it in place there and you'll be good to go. For mine, I had the retainer all the way down the threads and only came up enough to match the ball. Too high and it's going to have the boot too taut in 6th.

 

already beat me to it, but...
