Edit: Visit my auction - low, low, starting price - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=017&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=270061774795



I purchased this about a month ago from Sparks for $45 plus shipping: http://www.trdsparks.com/displayparts.php?Mdl_dtl=542&Part_cat=20&parts_id=1156

It only fits the automatic. It comes with a threaded insert that you screw into the knob and then screw the knob on the shaft.

Here is a photo of it on the Camry:

Here is a really crummy photo on the yaris (automatic liftback):

It sits a little higher than the stock plastic knob and feels nice to the hand.

Here's what you get:

I'll ship it anywhere in the Continental US for $35. My loss is your gain.

PM me if interested. I'll entertain offers.


I liked it fine but this one matched my leather interior to a "T":

Leather interior! Nice!

But I think your current one is installed the wrong direction? Front and back is opposited.

You know... I had it that way at first but it felt better this way. Looking at the Camry Solara (what it was made for) shows me you're right.

It all depends on how you grab at the knob. If you feel better this way, then this is the correct way! :)

I like the knob.

If I could find a different shift boot then I'd be all over this.

So buy the knob and go find a boot.

I'll ship to Canada for another $5.

OK but don't snooze.

BTW, this is very similar to what Toyota is selling for the Yaris in Canada for the $69.80 (CAN). And like I said, I'll entertain offers.

Here's a shot with that knob on a manual:

Mine doesn't say OBX on it.

Your shift knob has a better shape and looks more comfortable.

Hmm...

Did you sold your knob?

Thanks for reminding me. I had to take this back from bigsky2 because it doesn't fit the manual afterall.

Anyone with an automatic want a well travelled shift knob?

Make me an offer.

I love mine. It's very comfortable. I just want the short throw shifter now, but there's other things first.

(ok this thread is sounding just wrong....)

Damn I remember why I wanted this knob in the first place!

This is a replica of the Momo Combat Evo!

I'll be happy if it just goes to a good, loving home.
