Mazdaspeed knob..

Postby Lucky_Luke » Tue Aug 22, 2006 2:11 pm

Hey everyone,
I really like the look of this carbon fibre mazda speed gearknob, and have emailed mania for a few details about them... just wondering if anyone out there by any chance has one of these installed they might be able to post a pic up of, im just interested to see how they look installed and the size of them compared to the stock shift knob..

Cheers!
Luke.

I have one. Just screws on. No grub screws.

I am now trying to find a matching carbon fibre hand brake handle. Anyone else have any luck in that department?

Can I ask you guys where you purchased the Mazdaspeed knob from?

I know Corksport has them at USD$63 + shipping and I found another sight that was around USD$55 + shipping (cant find it anymore). Wonder how much Mania sell it for.
