    What shift knob do I have?

    My vehicle came with an AS SSK (%/type unknown) as well as a "custom weighted shift knob". I am just curious if anyone can identify this shift knob. I have seen a few from Condor that look similar.
    Wanting to switch to a ZHP knob for a more stock look but without knowing what I've got I'm not 100% what will work.

        It looks something like this (a retro type aluminum E30 knob):

Based on the classic mushroom shaped shift knob found in E30s and E28s, we made a modernized aluminum version! Made in house in the USA, these aluminum Vintage shift knobs offer a better


        The ZHP knob can be used with the AS SSK.

            jokes aside, it looks like brushed aluminum. Likely a custom knob.

              I don't think this is it - the brushed pattern doesn't match, and the logo is missing - but is similar to Storm Motorwerks shift knob V2.

                Definitely the closest thing I've seen so far except for mine has no markings on it like the laser engraved logo on the Strom Motorwerks knob. The logo I want to say was put on after the fact as I had to re-glue it shortly after purchasing the car. I want to replace it with the ZHP if possible and if the AS kit works with the ZHP it sounds like I'm good to go.

                      I would agree except this does not have the female threads present that the one linked in post #4 has, it is solid on top and uses a set screw to secure.

                            I know this has likely been beaten to death but if I get a ZHP knob do I need another boot or is it simply pull current knob off and push ZHP knob on? I see that most instructions require the use of a new boot but if possible I'd like to use my current boot.

                            Edit: I think I just answered my own question, my current aftermarket knob does not have a set screw, pulled straight off without incident.

                            Current knob feels like it weighs at least 12-16oz whereas the ZHP is 5.4oz, wonder if that weight reduction may be a negative.

                              Knobs that are too heavy are a detractor from me - all I feel is a knob, not the shifter action. ZHP knobs are close to perfectly weighted.
