Shift Knob Replacement

[mr.suntorytime]

The shift knob will be produced.

Waiting on Leadtime for CNC and post processing.

I will not be listing this product in advance and will list when the product is in stock ready to ship.

But isn't it better for forum watchers to have a bunch of people ask when their order will ship despite the fact you told them it was a pre-order and would take time?

Where's the fun in that?

I shall eagerly await the announcement.

Sample ordered.

So does this mean we can pre-order? What about pricing? You haven't revealed it yet.

im not giving a timeline yet. no timeline from manufacturer yet. pricing is TBD.

If i say the product will be ready a month from now, and then i get a sample and there is back and fourth.
Id be late by then.

So im just going to post here about it next when its in the store.

Thank you for understanding

Judging from the looks of the pictured illustration, it looks good. Not sure though it's wise to begin stocking them w/o knowing the demand for them, price being an important determining factor, but it's certainly your prerogative.

12mm, but I’m not sure on the pitch.

Did hear anything back from them?

Post 77 has all the details needed - including the pitch.

I finally received the wooden shift knob from Lotus in the UK that I ordered last December. I was not sure I would get it. It got stuck here in Chicago customs for several weeks. I like it a lot. $342 delivered from SJ Sportscars Limited. I worked with a great guy named Chris there. He stayed on Lotus pretty good. It weighs 2oz less than the stock knob, 4 1/8 oz versus 2 1/8 oz. I don't think that's an issue for me. Add lightness . I dig the way it looks.
