Changed my stick shifter knob!

Thanks to "its2easy" and "Germax", they told me how to remove the shifter knob. All you have to do is pull up, and it comes right off! It was a little scary how easy it came off. You can see their post here:

Ok, when you buy a new shifter knob, make sure in will fit 8mm to 15mm. The lower number is what is important. Our "stick" is about 8mm. All the shifter knobs have big holes, but they come with adapters so it will fit our stick. I tried out two different knobs. One is black and chrome and the other was gray/black(two tone) and chrome. I ended up going with the gray/black one. It looked less like a factory knob and it matched well. The black one was nice, but it blended in too well. It was easy to install. 3 set screws and that was really it. In the slideshow, the first pics is the metal rod with the knob removed (2 pics), the next pics is our factory knob(2 pics), then the black knob(2 pics), and then the grey/black knob(5 pics. This is the one I decided to keep)

Oh yeah, I got the the black knob from Autozone, and the Gray/black one from Pepboys.

I decided to switch knobs. This one has a better look. It is two tone, chrome and light brown. It is hard to see the light brown in the pics. It will NOT fit our stick shifter, so I did a mod to make it fit. It worked out well:

In the first slideslide show, the black one was $17, the gray/black one was $20. In the second slideshow, the chrome and brown one was $14. Some are cheaper, that is just the ones I picked. There is some pretty cool ones on amazon if you don't mind waiting for it. Just remember our shaft size is about 8mm.
