cool shift knobs

I have one from C2C, but it's unavailable now

 

i have a custom glass shift knob, white with a toyota symbol at the top

 

My stainless steel shifter which was nearly finished:






Until the god damn tap broke during the final operation:

 

Thinking about making one of these:

 

It's grey, even though the flash kind of made it look white here. The grey matches the Taco interior perfectly. Got it here: http://www.sickspeed.com

 

Excuse the dirty mess my truck is, hasn't been on the road for a few months..and I've ripped the entire dash apart doing mods and stuff..and bunch of other sh1t!

 

Here's my real 8 ball shifter, using oem insert that i hacked out of the shifter and trimmed down.

 

that looks like you could extract that or drill that out.........worth a try to save your project.

 

Here is my XRS Matrix knob

 

For those of you with aftermarket shift knobs, just a little tip to keep the boot up. Take the whole console out, put rubberbands on the shaft, then put the console back on. The rubberbands will hold up the boot so it's flush with your aftermarket shift knob.

 

I'll give that a shot. Thank you!

 

need more shift knobs

 

twm makes the best shift knobs i have ever had the pleasure to hold. here is a picture of my flat black M1 abrams 5 spd etching

it's a heavy little bitch! but it smoothed out the rough balky shifting 5 speed in my taco. one of my favorite upgrades now.

 

How about leather shift knobs with a 6 speed pattern? I love the feel of my OEM one, but I'm looking to upgrade it to something that has a bit of red contrast stiching or maybe a small TRD logo embroidered.

To this date, I've been SOL.

 

not gonna lie it kinda looks like a dildo sorry

 

i think it would be cool for someone to make the OEM with white leather and red stitching like a baseball

 

Ah it's good to see these again, good memories making these things. I would love to still be able to make them.

Actually If I could get enough people I'm sure the teacher would let me come back and make them when I needed to. If you think you might be interested in having one made post up in this thread. Post up, if I get at least three people I'll go talk to the teacher and see about making more.

Post up exactly like this:

1. TW name, Choice of metal (brass or aluminum), Size (2" or 3"), Generation (pretaco, 1st gen, 2nd gen), Tranny (Manual or Auto), and the logo or design you'd like on the top.

So for example:

1. Pope953, Brass, 3", Pretaco, Manual, Toyota emblem on top.
2. Next person
3. Next person

I'll play too mine look like this in my truck...

 

Pope, on a rough estimate..what would those run? Using the scale below.


$ - $45-70
$$- $75-90
$$$- $100+


Just curious...
