Some of you may know, I fell in love with the AC Schnitzer LCD Shift knob when it came out but couldn't locate where to buy it. Here's a pic of it:



Also really like the Hartge illuminated shift knob but can't see myself spending $300+ on it.

I am currently using an ACS rep shift knob which is made identical to the real thing. Will be up for sale soon and only for manual transmissions.

I bought the INDY-CATOR Blue LCD Shift Knob!!!




I chose blue over the red. I wish there was white. But blue is fine. It was a tough choice over blue and red. But my dashboard is white so blue matches it better especially with my crazy LED Interiors Version Infinity!

That's easy, just do blue LEDs everywhere inside now and it'll match


And for it's worth, I like this shift lever. I don't know what the phuck you need the gear indicator for - you drive well enough for me to believe that you know what gear you're in... but that's another story - maybe mercury from all that fish is starting to mess with your mind or smth


Congrats on your new knob, man! Let the jokes about knobs begin

I dunno. I LOVE gadgets. Well, I get confused in what gear I'm in A LOT. LOL. I;m in sixth and I ALWAYS think I'm in 4th and wanna push it to 5th. Unless I am driving fast, I put it in wrong gears sometimes. The sixth gear crusing around ALWAYS make me feel I'm in 4th for some reason.
