Hello all!

I am back at the shift knob biz again. I made these years ago but due to a busy schedule decided that I needed to focus on work.

(edited post) I have received great response to members buying my product. Thanks to all who have purchased!
I am adding this in after the fact to make sure members receive paid for product right away.

If you would like a shift knob please PayPal payment to thompson.mfr@gmail.com, then text or call 503.702.9276 to notify you have made payment.

I receive so many emails, that at times, they can get lost in the shuffle and I DO NOT want you to receive your product late. When you notify me you have made payment, your shift knob will ship same or next day. I ship priority mail 2-3 days!

INFO:

914 912 911 Porsche Shift Knob with 901 transmission shift pattern.

This shift knob was C&C machined out of Aircraft Quality Billet Aluminum, was then Anodized, and shift pattern machined on top. Notice the circle surrounding the shift pattern mimicking the original 901 shift pattern knob's plastic insert.

One of the greatest attributes of this knob is that it is heavier than the factory knob, which aids in shifting and gives a cleaner feel to gear selection.

The dimensions of this new anodized aluminum knob are exact except for flat topped (see pictures for comparison to original)

2 set screws aid in perfect placement of this new and improved shift knob. (set screws are on back side of knob, hidden from driver or passenger view)

I was the first to manufacture these aftermarket knobs and have been busy with life, but am back at it. These far surpass even my old shift knobs sold years ago.

YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED WITH THE QUALITY OF THIS EXCEPTIONAL PRODUCT.

Very nice! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

How Much?

Can I get it with a 4 speed pattern? Can I get it pollished, no anodizing?

The price is $55 with free Priority Mail shipping in the US.

If you would like to purchase one please email me thompson.mfr@gmail.com. That email is also what you can make payment to via PayPal. Please let me know which style you would like.

If you can call or text (503.702.9276) and let me know you made payment that will ensure your order is expedited.

FYI I will be offering a brushed version; hope to add pics tonight.

Ryan,

Quick clarification -- does it also use the factory style crush sleeve, or only the set screws to attach to the shift lever?

Cheers,

It only used the 2 set screws. No need for the crush sleeve. Take it on and off with no problems.

16.5mm inside diameter. Please comment on whether or not this will fit a Rennshifter shaft, so anyone else that has one will know. Thanks for the inquiry.

I took the knob off of my stock shifter and put it on my rennshifter, so I'd say yes.
