ECT Stealth PRO shift knob

Let us know how the install goes

 

No idea. USPS said for a Tuesday delivery. Even the mailman himself was early today.

Will do. Probably won't be until Friday or Saturday

 

Fuck I can't wait for mine to get here, I already swapped my ect button w the puddle switch and this truck drives like turtle in mud.

Geeze, mine said Tuesday but I just checked the status and it's at my front door . Time to run home!

 

Yup!

 

Has anyone tried to re-thread the red stitching on the PRO Shifter for another color? I want this stealth mod but there's red in my interior so I'm debating over it...the trials and tribulations

 

I think people use an upholstery marker.

 

I used a fabrIc (black) pen. Went over it multiple times and think I’m going to look for another brand and do it again. It soaks it in like nothing

 

So simple yet so effective

 

Have a quick pic? Also which brand isn't working well??

 

There are a lot of brands, sharpie makes a specific line for fabric. I don’t know if there’s anything in this forum, but some higher end car forums have videos, I’m sure you could find stuff on YouTube.

 

I used Sharpie fabric permanent marker and had to do a couple of coats over a few hours. It soaks into the threads behind the leather. I just cleaned threads with hot water on a rag and let dry. Then just held the tip of the marker in one spot on each thread and let it soak in.

Before

After

 

Where has this been for all my previous orders lol

 

Had no idea this existed

 

I had an ECT button idea and sent Meso a shifter and thought I was just getting a regular button on the side like some OEM ones on some cars. Meso came up with the Stealth idea and this is the Prototype. He knocked it outta the park. He surprised me and this one was custom with MGM accents.

 

Do you have any recommendations on how to and what to use to make the red stealth buttons to black?

 

I don’t but it’s not bad, if you look real closely (I can tell) there is still a reddish ting and it’s barely noticed but I do and bothers me when I think of it. Example- I completely forgot until someone in this thread brought it up and then all those emotions came rushing back

It was from Amazon and after looking again the majority of the fabric pens are acrylic so I’d guess that’s what I got. Amazon didn’t even show a sharpie brand until I searched it after @20tacoma17 just posted it. And it’s oil based so I’m thinking that will be a better result. I just ordered a 3 pack on amazon of the fine tip
