You'd be looking for one that has a M12x1.25 (http://yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=624&highlight=M12x1.25) thread.

this is correct. fortunately for you though, aftermarket ones usually have 3 plastic "adapters" that are self-threading to suit almost any specifications.

I've been driving since 1990, and all of these aftermarket knobs with adapters suck. Stick with a proper threaded one.

What is the difference between M12x1.25, M12x1.25A & M12x1.25B? Which is the one I would be looking for? Also, is it possible to use adapter screws? I've been looking at this one [ebay link (http://www.ebay.ca/itm/380792624345?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649)] but unfortunately they don't come in M12x1.25
Thanks everyone. It has been difficult finding this information anywhere.

i couldnt agree with you more.
@xmotionx, i don't think it makes any difference so long as it's 12x1.25. not sure though. your ebay link is not the correct one for a manual, but for clarification m12x1.25 is for manual, m8x1.25 is for automatic shift knobs.

Ah, its a good thing you mentioned that. Mine is an automatic so I would be looking at 8x1.25. Now I have more options lol.

I went with an OEM one from an xB. Same size and shape, but with pleather wrap and a chromed trim ring around the shift pattern. Much nice.

Yes any one you get from the local parts store or ebay will absolutely suck. But, I've been using a MOMO knob for about 6 years and 3 cars now and absolutely love it compared to stack ones. So you can get a good universal aftermarket one bit expect to pay close to $80 for the quality.

I'm a big fan of Delrin knobs, I really like the texture and that they don't get hot in the sun.

this is one of the best "aftermarket" upgrades for the yaris, let alone really cheap. i believe it is available on ebay. it is also specific for toyota, which means no :w00t:adapters.
the one on the right is for automatics and probably a different thread. (not M12x1.25). and yes, i got the 5-speed version on the right. both 5- and 6-speed are available from most sellers.

the automatic TRD "86" knob is actually available for automatics too, bigger TRD that's engraved at the center, unlike the manuals that have a smaller one as it shares the space with the gear pattern.
here's mine, once is the stock knob which i had wrapped in genuine leather, the other one is the TRD knob.
@rigaud, nice knob, unfortunately the ones like that available here all have black stitching, that's why i had mine upholstered instead. (genuine leather yet cheaper, no shift pattern though)
