u can buy a type R shift knob anywhere.. honda/acura dealers... or any online shops.. or just buy the replica and save some money..
to install:

stick ur fingers inside ur rubber boot, grab the bottom, pull outward gently, it should snap out. put new knob on, put back.

first of all, to change the boot, its the same thing. stick ur fingers into the bottom of the boot and pull, then change to a CTr one... secondly... u want to get rid of that ugly rubber boot and get a ctr boot? FYI, our boots are EXACTLY the same, the only diff is the chrome clip on the top.. so if u think our rubber boot is ugly....

I bought it off some on this board because they did not want it. I can not remember their ID. I know there has to be a easy place to get them.

This is a closer shot;

I had to use a dremel tool shave the knob. I shaved it little by little so it has a good teight fit on the boot.

It looks like the same one. As you see it is not round. What you have to do is make a small folt in leather at the base to make it round. It took me a few time to get it right and to my liking so you can not even tell.

Hey, if your looking for a red stitch boot go to www.jujeracing.com they sell a redstitch boot fit for the 02 EP. Don't quote me on the fit, I haven't got one from them yet, but im planning on it.

Hey TodaCspec, where did you get that shift knob bro, i've been looking all over for it. the closest i could get was one made RAZO.
