    @FreshMexicanTaco

    It looks like I'm the first manual guy to get his in the mail, and I could tell as soon as I flipped it over out of the package that it wasn't gunna fit... Someone asked specifically in the beginning for a manual version and was told to go ahead and order one but put a comment stating it was for a manual. Looks like I got an auto one. The hole is no where near large enough. It looks like it's over 2mm too small...PXL_20220404_214538488.jpg PXL_20220404_214914442.jpg PXL_20220404_215001302.jpg

    In no way should you have to do this... but it would probably be pretty easy to redrill and tap the hole with a drill press.

    Got mine yesterday, super easy install. It's giving me a bit of #rememberthebuster vibes.

    I do not plan to do that, although I'm sure that I could. Hopefully @FreshMexicanTaco comes through with a solution. Kinda bummed out to be honest. Was really looking forward to getting rid of the stock shift knob. But of course I'll give him a chance to rectify it.

    Well that's a shame, did you also ask for the shift pattern?

    No, I got exactly what I asked for otherwise. Red TEQ center, no button

    Not to be a smart alek but, if you made the hole the same size as the shift rod, there would be no threads. You are correct though in the hole being small. A 12mm fine thread hole should be 10.5mm.

    I almost forgot about this. Feels like it's been a while now without any updates.

    @FreshMexicanTaco

    Yeah I'm still waiting on my knob. I sent a follow up email when I returned my knob and then asked for an update some days later. Silence. This is my first group buy\preorder ever... Not leaving a very good taste all things considered. I was one of the first few orders placed, I was deployed at the time so figured it'd help me wait. I've been home for over 2 months now. Recieved one knob, right color, right center cap...wrong size hole tapped for the shifter. Really hoping to get a knob soon... Not to sound like a some dickhead who is impatient, but just regular updates from a company that's selling you a product and has our money already would just seem like a regular thing to expect, and not all that much of an ask.

    I really hope this doesn't come off as if I'm furious and want my money back. Because I'm not, and don't. I really like the knob. The one I got looked and felt great. So now I'm even more excited to receive the one that fits the manual shifter. Just waiting days on end with zero updates for quite some time now really really sucks.

    /End rant

    AJ! My man! If you're going to sell products through TW, I would suggest providing updates and support more than once a month.

    Can you please provide an update on these long overdue orders? Even if the update is "we're still waiting on springs."

    Thanks!

    While we're all here, would you want a momentary or on/off switch to run the ECT?
