For Sale - Leather shift knob w/mesh insert - Toyota Yaris Forums

Violin · 10-03-2006, 11:33 AM

Edit: Visit my auction - low, low, starting price - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=270061774795

I purchased this about a month ago from Sparks for $45 plus shipping: http://www.trdsparks.com/displaypart...&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":

GabL · 10-03-2006, 02:33 PM

Leather interior! Nice!

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

Violin · 10-03-2006, 02:41 PM

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.

GabL · 10-03-2006, 02:45 PM

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

bigsky2 · 10-03-2006, 02:45 PM

I like the knob.

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

Violin · 10-03-2006, 02:48 PM

So buy the knob and go find a boot.

I'll ship to Canada for another $5.

bigsky2 · 10-03-2006, 02:57 PM

I'll get back to you on that Violin.

Violin · 10-03-2006, 03:18 PM

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.

He's making fun of canadians!

Now I get it.

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

Mine doesn't say OBX on it.

Violin · 10-06-2006, 07:19 AM

OK

$25 shipped within the Continental US.

$30 to Canaduh.

Any takers before I put this up on eBay?

bigsky2 · 10-06-2006, 05:00 PM

I already have a Momo Shadow knob...

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

Hmm...

Violin · 10-07-2006, 09:10 AM

That just sounds wrong.

Did you sold your knob?

Violin · 11-17-2006, 09:19 PM

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....)

bigsky2 · 11-26-2006, 11:49 PM

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

This is a replica of the Momo Combat Evo!

Too bad you threw the adapter in the trash..
