Look I can actually see the volume knob now small wins...

Ordered my piston shifter knob from Happy Endings. Burnt Ti weighted. Used moldable silicone to wrap the post and slipfit the knob on. Worked perfectly.

Spent a lot of time to dremel it to fit. It's the same pattern and way smaller then the stock one.

got another Happy Endings shifter in yellow to match stitching...

Bless you sir.
This is exactly what I was looking to do originally.
Ended up doing this...
And it's still not mounted correctly.
Would you be willing to share how you made this work?

It is a shifter from Lynk & Co 09. It's common for them to swap it out for a weird crystal one that's why you can get it used easily. I did not cut or modify the OEM metal shaft. I did dremel out a lot of the inside of the knob to fit right.

That looks great. Where did you get the new lever cover?
How tall is the metal piece under the lever cover? I am curious if it could be cut down to be something like in a BMW? But if not, your setup looks like it achieves what I want. See the volume knob and gain access to the cubby in front of the lever.

I ended up going a different route, but I like it.

How did you get it firmly attached?

The knob I picked up came with a few of these adapters. I picked the most snug, put it onto the shaft, and screwed down the knob. Not sure if I just got lucky, but it’s completely tight.
