All the aftermarket shift knobs ive seen and tried and ended up returnign have looked really wierd becuase of how the boot is. The problem is that when you put it on the boot just kind of hangds there not conected to the knob and all. Am I missing somethign or is there somehtign that I have to do. Is there a good shift knob that any of yall wanna recommend because I cant find any that I really like. My color scheme is blue and silver.
Thanks

You need the JDM shift boot to use aftermarket shift knobs.;) I'll find some pics for you.

i just bought a rsc optional aluminum 5 speed shift knob. it looks exactly like the jdm one except it has black letterings. i wanna get the CTR boot now. where is the best place to get it at and the best price? and what do people how have the boot use to keep the shifter up? black tape?

Since your in Orange County you can get it at Inline 4 for like $50 or call up Island Motorsports (714) 522-7457 & ask for Jimmy. Tell him Tony sent you and see what kind of price he can give you. Usually he will beat any price out there.;)

I'm sorry but that just doesn't look right at all....it seems like the boot it being streched too far at the top and it just looks funny IMO. The JDM boot is only $50, I would understand if it was like a bill er-somthing but $50.....just cough up the cash and make it look good.:)
