    Default shiFT knOB heaVEN

    ---------------------------------------------I drive a 1990 Mitsubishi Eclipse-----------------------------------------------------------
    Ok guys, I am now looking for a shift knob. My car came with a ghetto electric fag sliver skull shifter and its just not me. I want to replace it and after doing my own research I have found a liking to Razo (simply due to pricing and some styling) I dont care to have MOMO or GREDDY blazed on my shifter just because and pay $55 for it.

    I want a leather wrapped stitched knob though. But... the real question is... is there any real difference between standard knobs and weighted knobs? I would only assume the weighted ones help u get into that said gear with less effort. But do they help and if so, is Razo a good company for the price?

    I don't know if Razo is any good for shift knobs but I have noticed ease of gear transition when using a weighted shift knob.

    Well throw out some links of places I need to check out. I normally have never had to look since I've always had a stock knob, but I hate this one everyday and it makes me want to punch small kids and grandmothers really hard. And I'm not a violant person

    i think that most razo knobs are a set screw type. i would stay away from those. screw on only for me.

    well I need a screw type shifter knob. I bought a generic aftermarket knob from autozone and hate it as well. The Skull I have screws directly onto my column, I want to find one like that.
