Does anyone know a great leather weighted shift knob? I'm looking to replace my skunk2 shifter because it burns my hand everyday after being heated up.

get a baby sock and put it over it, thats what i do and i dont feel any of the heat or cold. Some people put those sweat bands and stuff that you put on your wrist too. Baby sock is a perfect fit though lol

What kind of leather knob are you looking for, like plain black just as the stock one was or something different, i have never seen a leather weighted one though

Razo maybe?? or OEM?? Or maybe make a leather sock for your skunk knob so you get the weight, shape and leather all in one?

I got a 5 speed leather, weighted shift knob off a prelude at a Pick-A-Part
Basically a car part junk yard.

$1.99 + 9.75% CA taxes.

ok I found a few weighted leather shift knobs but none for a Honda. And they all look stock. I want one that actually look aftermarket. Guess I'll just have to get a 6speed to rock the s2k knob.

i've got a plastic rsx-s 6 speed knob if you're down for that, if you have the oem shift boot (non ctr) it fits in the collar just like stock...

haha that looks cool but i'll pass because I'm running a leather shift book with a diy rubber holder. I will never go back to that accordian boot ever again. i think it just looks plain fugly.

I like the "accordian" boot for the EP3. Due to the dash mounted shifter, i think leather shift boots in EP3s look nasty. Floor mounted shifters no doubt, leather is good.
