In your own opinion, what's the greatest shift knob?

[Van Westervelt]

I like my Whalen knob.

I'm undecided on what I will use when the car is finished. I bought this one about 3 years ago on Ebay and got lucky. It's brand new and NLA, but not weighted.



And then I have a UUC RK3 illuminated/polished but it might be a little too bling in polished. It's NLA so no pics on UUC's site. I had a ZHP on my E39 and really liked it. I think I may order one just for the heck of it to see how it looks.

you guys who burned your hands on metal knobs are retarded. 1st of all you should know better, 2nd of all, if you don't know better, just put a hat or some shit over it. 3rdly, how hot could it really get? (Admittedly, I'm a cook so I have a pretty high tolerance for heat)

My UUC RK3 in brushed aluminum is my favorite. Discontinued, for better or worse (rarity?)

DD'd my car in sunny socal for about 3 years, with a black on black car, and never once burned my hand on my uuc knob.

I was hoping he'd specify the "5 series" he got it out of.

When I got my car it was missing the shift knob so i fondled a memeber here in the forum till he let me handle his knob..
And this is what I got.. till today...


Then I went to the pomona swap meet today and totaly scored
the knob w/ BMW rondle below for $3 dollars..Man I love this knob, it seems taller and easier to select the gears..
gawd I feel like i've been in the dark till now..
