    We apologize for the lack of updates, we have had supply issues and have been short handed which are a just terrible combo.
    Whoever has not received their shift knob will get it for free, including the functional button if desired and for those who bought during the group buy and already have a knob, if you asked for the button at the time, but did not receive it (or pay for it), your button upgrade will be FREE as well. Please go ahead and send @TheTacoGarageServiceRep a message with your order info to get that set up.
    @TheTacoGarageServiceRep will also be on here as often as possible checking in with everyone so feel free to shoot her a message with any questions, her and myself are working side by side to get everything back on track.
    Again we apologize for the long wait and we understand your frustrations, we're trying to make it right.
    BIG THANKS

    I knew holding out would work, I wasn't worried about the money, but the refund is nice. Glad to still be getting a knob! (or at least extremely hopeful I will, lmao)

    Here’s my black knob after 2 or 3 months of sitting in the garage and very minimal sun exposure.

    Is it from sun or hand oils?

    As even as the fading is, I'd have to imagine it's the sun.

    If my hand oils can alter anodizing then I would have some other issues than posting on TW.

    I literally have $2 valve caps on my truck that have been on the truck for over a year that aren’t faded this much.

    I can pull it and paint it and be done, just disappointing. Especially because we had to wait on these due to (iirc) delays at the finishers.

    I got my integrated on/off switch in the mail today. I have not decided what to use it for but it is a very satisfying click.

    I got mine too. I was expecting a switch that I would be able to install, since I already had my knob. But they sent out a whole new knob with the switch built in.

    Anybody else install their on/off switch yet? Got mine done today and for some reason it takes two clicks to turn the ect on or off. Can't figure out why.

    Anybody that got a full refund that didn't get a knob in the first shipment actually recieve a knob yet? Or at least get a shipping notification? Being #4 on the list and still not receiving the knob is really disheartening...

    I've sent 2 emails (several months apart) asking for a status update on my order. One was sent before the refund and one after... Radio silence...

    I friggin hate the stock knob! It creaks and crackles because of the multiple piece\plastic design and it's driving me nuts!

    Edit: they responded to my email!
