My stock knob is worn out and its time to get a new one. Im thinking about the UPR composite, or the Steeda custom, but Im open to other suggestions as I might have overlooked some knobs, cause I know there are alot of choices out there.

Show me what you got.

I dont have any pictures right now but my advice would be to never get a two piece knob. For some reason i always break them and then they rattle and it pisses me off. I ended up with the upr solid billet polished and i love it and it looks great no matter what color interior.

I've got an MGW Pistol Grip knob with the Mustang pony on it.

What two pieces are you referring to? It's a knob and an allen screw...

It hasn't let me down yet after four years attached to my MGW shifter, and I race with it...

I have the black Roush shift knob and I love it. It fits perfect in my hand.

The MGW knob is great! No way it can rattle...a one piece with the emblem logo embedded in it...besides it will be gauranteed for life! He stands behind his stuff!!

I put an 05 GT take-off on mine feels like the original & the brushed satin finish matches well with my other accessories. But I'd put that MGW in there if it ever fails!

i have a billet round knob and it looks fantastic. looks basically just like the mach 1 knob. i like a t-handle too. the only downside to the aluminum knob is that it gets cold in the winter.

GDawg i bought the cheap knock off from UPR and where the bottom silver piece meets the black knob part is two pieces and it must have seperated. Henceforth the rattling.

I have never bought anything from UPR so I don't know their quality. But I have an MGW short throw shifter with an MGW pistol grip knob and I have to tell you that MGW is a leader in the industry with quality. Many on this board will agree that MGW has impressed us...
