Been having it for about a month. Just never got to take a picture. Its a bit dirty right now tho. It was on all of my minitrucks. Been having it for about 6 years. Figured i'd see if it fit. And just didn't feel like taking it off.

As it turns out, Miata shift knobs are heavier than the stock knob and the thread is much deeper in the knob. Here's some pics...



what miata is that from?

Eh I dunno if the hfit mounts would really make a difference over just having the Mugen setup...by the way that pic was wrong. I have circuit hero extender to avoid elbow bumping JDM console:

Hybrid Racing Limited Edition Weighted Shift Knob - Accessories - Default Store View

I was going to keep them to myself. But i figured what the hey might as well spread the awesome shift knob love. They are all limited edition runs. They only make them for a short time then trash the design and make a new one. This is Knob #2 i missed the first 1. It was amazing. Think i'm gonna wait for #3 tho
