Anyone have this MGW Shift Knob?

http://www.mgwltd.com/mustang_gripper_shift_knob.html

Pleas post some pics if you do have it. I want to see
Also, does this shif knob fit all the (T3650) transmissions shifters?

I asked them and they said it fit stock shifters AND a Pro-5.0. I asked about the steeda, but they just kept saying "yes it fits the 5.0". I was like wtf?
So, lets see some pics please

I thought the same thing until I got my pro 50 and it is night and day different. But I was racing more and didnt want to damage my trans by SLAMING gears at the track. But its great on the street also.

I have the Steeda Black Cue-Ball knob.

I am not 100% happy with this though. There is no lock nut or anything to prevent it from spinning. It looks great, but it does not stay very well.

I have the MGW Composite Racing Knob, and just freak'in love it. VERY comfortable, doesn't get too hot if sitting in the sun, super quality, etc.

EDIT:
It looks better in-person, the picture really doesn't do it justice. FYI Also, there is a little screw in the top-center of the ring which you tighten to prevent the knob from spinning--awesome!

You obviously have never driven with anything but a stock shifter.One spin around the block with my pro5.0 and you will change your tune, guaranteed.

I thought so too, but not really. I've driven with it on those hot humid 95+ degree days and it sometimes gets mildly warm, but nothing bad. If it sits in the sun too long it does get hot, but it quickly cools off after a few shifts.

It does get COLD though. We've had a few mornings dip into the 50's this summer and the knob was cold inthe morning. We'll see what it's like when it's 0 degrees out.

Haha, it doesn't get that hot. It just gets a little warm but it only does that on the hottest of days.

There's nothing on my knob, it's just a solid polished ball. It scratches easy though and you get figerprints on it


I just wanted something to break up the blackness of my interior. I have El-glo gauges and thought the knob was a nice touch. I might go back to the stock leather one for the winter if it gets too cold.


I have the IUP center radio bezel as well. I'm just waiting til i find a IUP shifter trim peice before i install it.
