I am looking for a new shift knob for an automatic transmission. I liked the Ichibahn Cruz series but apparently they don't make those any more. After looking around The only other one I found that I like is this one
Shift Knob (http://www.amazon.com/MOMO-Automatico-Universal-Shift-Knobs/dp/B0002ZUYTK/sr=1-1/qid=1169776668/ref=sr_1_1/002-2945845-9943228?ie=UTF8&s=automotive)
But its a little pricy at around $90. Does anyone have any suggestions of something that will look good but won't break the wallet. I am looking for something that will complement my carbon fiber interior from VCFinishes.

I liked the look of the one you have Naich. I couldn't find it exactly but this was close. Will this one work and look ok in our car?

That looks ok. And I'm sure it would fit. It might take a little work, as all universal shift knobs. You can use tape to increase the shifter handle size, or fabricate a spacer. You'll have to probably do that for any universal knob to fit right.

I actually found my exact knob on ebay for $35 shipped. I just ordered a new one, because I lost the rubber piece that goes on the bottom of the knob, and also I scratched up the one I have pretty good after taking it off and on so much over the years. The same guy has 2 left. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-Levoc-LV-461-464-Auto-Shift-Knob-Nissan-Mitsubishi_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33703QQihZ00 7QQitemZ170073887412QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

I just wanted to recomend against getting one of the ones with the um, rim thinger, around the button. If you have big hands like I do then it doesn't make it comfortable. Almost makes me want to park on the street so I don't have to shift into reverse in the morning. I think they designed mine for little kids and little people...

I ended up not getting that one. I got the levoc LV-461. Took some modification but it fits and looks great.

DO NOT GET IT!! i dont know what i was smoking when i got it b/c it dont even look that great. lol its a cheap POS. the chrome is plastic and it holds the black part with 2 really poorly mounted screws and within 2 weeks the fucking thing came apart, i threw the damn thing out and went back to stock b/c ive never been able to find one that i know works and actually looks good
