    Hey guys,

    I’m looking for a new shift knob for my truck. Don’t like the stock one but I’m looking for a specific design. I want a transformers themed knob with the Autobot symbol on it. Anyone ever seen one that’s NOT the ball style? Or does anyone know of any company or person who makes custom knobs?

    Thanks guys!

    I Googled "transformer shift knob" and got the result that I am sure Richard has seen, the Autobot symbol but it is on a ball type. What I could do, If Richard has a small round Autobot disc, is to insert it into the top of my wooden knobs. As this red insert is - Your choice of wood. Let me know.

    Thanks guys! I’ve seen most of this stuff. What I was thinking was more along the lines of something like this but in black:

    I have a stupidly long wait list at this point, but if you're patient I can make pretty much whatever you want (minus the black coating part).
