Shift Knob Showoff

[SpawnedX]

It's definitely not stock, , look at the picture of stock ones and how high they are.

 

[2GbTalonGuy]

Here is a pic right out of my dealership brochure. Looks just like the height of mine.

 

[SpawnedX]

That image is stretched which is why it looks so short. I have yet to be in one 2G that didn't have the shifter cut that was as short as yours.

 

[2GbTalonGuy]

It looks stretched cause the page is bent when I took the pic. I had to lift it to get rid of the glare. It is all proportional in the actual pic, and the shifter looks the same. Its not even looking at the height, look at the boot in this pic and the one you posted. IDK what it is. There is a pic in the same brochure of one with a grey interior and the shifter looks taller like the one you posted.

Your's definitely is either cut or aftermarket. I've got 2 2g's out in the driveway, one with a shifter about your size (aftermarket short throw) and another with the stock shifter. I've worked on probably 5 other 2g's and none of them had a shifter that short stock.

If thats stock, than I will trade you for my stock one!

Perhaps the knob has been modified so it threads lower on the spindle?

 

[Th3DooM]

Or maybe it's just the special uber unique Ralliart Edition of the 2g.

 

[Colt4G63 also]

you like it at an angle like that? that would aggravate me to no end.
and what is that thing that sort of looks like a sword?

Why? It's not so different from one of these:

The thing that looks like a sword is my sword... Kidding, it's a motorized seat belt track.

Its a T handle!!!

I bought the knob brand new, right out of the dealership packaging, and I did not mod it.

Or maybe it's just the special uber unique Ralliart Edition of the 2g.

That must be it.

The one I have is made of actual carbon fiber. They attached it to cloth then used an actual eclipse shift boot and copied the pattern. Fit perfectly.

Wow. I don't see any either. Only the carbon fiber vinyl. Glad I got mine when they made em.
