    Well, I had an e46 shift knob in my car, but it twisted around and could pull off easily. It may have been broken , though.

              Do these just press on? I've got some crappy flexible thing that bends every time I shift :(

                Yes. You slide it down the shaft and then hit it with the palm of your hand and it "snaps" into place.

                  I would guess the ZHP knob is around 8-10oz?

                  Not weighted as much as a Whalen Shift Machine, but it's definitely weighted.

                        don't know if it weighs that much, but it was comparable to my smallish aluminum knob that claims to be an old UUC knob.

                          anyone know off hand how much these run? I'm looking for a heavy knob that's light on the wallet.

                              It says on that site that was linked that they're on sale for $54. Pretty damn good deal if you ask me.
