    Default Shift Knobs & Boot

    Does anyone know of a good source for either chrome or possible yellow shift knobs. Plus do any of you know who makes the tan shift boot?

    Perhaps Knobmeister can help?

    I've got a Pearl Magnum (2" diameter) Voodoo that I'd be willing to let go for $25. I think I've decided I like the shift action with the OEM knob better.

    Hey Altiain thanks for the offer but I'm really looking for a chrome & yellow shift knob. Momo has a nice looking one.

    I think that the knobmeister, can take a pearl or crome one, and make yellow letters on it... As for the shift boots, that is the place I am going to get mine from. I am going to ask for them for my B-day. I was thinking black with silver stitches. What do you guys think?

    Majik I think a black boot with silver stitches would look really good. That is a good color combo. I'm thinking of getting the light tan with yellow stitches.

    Well I bought a Momo F16 (yellow & alluminum) knob shifter for Vivid. The yellow seems to be a close match. Now I just need to get the tan shift boot.
