1st pic stock shifter handle and height knob turned
2nd pic stock shifter handle 2" cut off
3rd pic new shifter knob 2" cut off

i never liked the stock shfiter height ... too tall gets in the way

after cutting it looks sooo much better now i may keep the stock knob

the pics dont really show the huge height difference ... i shoulda taken side pics

the bottom of the new knob is only 1.25" above the plate

what say thee?

Me likey. I can see the difference in the first two pics.

In respect to the knobs, I really like both. I don't think you can go wrong either way. Gun to my head, I might lean towards the new, round knob.

Aesthetically this looks dope. Kinda looks like the Prius how it has a knob that sits on the selector plate, I dig it. Tall people will have to reach down further to shift it though LOL. I would do this to mine if I wasn't converting to 5 speed
