Weighted leather shift knob?

R1600Turbo · Jul 21, 2014

So first things first, I live in Arizona and even when my stock shift knob is not sitting in the sun, the ambient heat can still heat it up enough that I cannot grab it without burning my hand on the metal trim.

So, I am looking for a nice, weighted, all leather shift knob. Any recommendations?

Just priced one out, and $195 is way too steep for my wallet. Thanks though.

Are your windows tinted? If they are buy a windshield reflector to eliminate the only other place light gets in.

Otherwise just get a small pouch and use it to cover the knob while parked.

Windows are tinted, although I believe they could be darker. I do have a reflector. Still, black car in the Arizona sun, even the ambient heat of the air makes it too hot to touch.

That's a really good idea. Small crown royal bag or something maybe :thumbsup:
