Best Shift Knobs of 2025

"I just installed this on my 2012 Mazda Speed 3 and haven't driven it yet, but it feels great while shifting through the gears. The weight is perfect, and it has a smooth finish with no sharp edges. It has a minimalist style that I really like. Installation was a breeze with three different thread sizes, and the middle one fit my shifter snugly. Just a heads-up, it's a bit taller than I'm used to, but overall, it's a fantastic knob for the price!"

"This shift knob feels very solid and has a great weight to it. Shifting is much easier compared to the factory knob, especially with worn synchros. I installed it on my 1991 Mercury Capri, and it fits perfectly. The durable painted finish is a nice touch, and I really appreciate how simple it was to install."

"I installed this in my 2022 Lexus GX460, and I love it! It gives my car a clean and high-quality look in the all-black interior. The weight feels just right, and I've noticed a smoother shifting experience. Just keep in mind that it can get hot in the summer, but it quickly adjusts to the car's temperature."

"I bought this shift knob for my 2010 Miata GT, and to be honest, I didn't expect much given the price. However, it shipped quickly and even arrived a day early. The packaging was simple, but the product itself is fantastic. The knob has excellent quality and a nice weight; it doesn’t feel cheap at all. I have medium-large hands, and it fits perfectly. The included thread adapters are of good quality, and I don’t foresee any issues with them. Overall, it's a great shift knob and an incredible value for the money. 10/10, I’d recommend this to anyone looking to enhance their interior or improve grip while driving."

"I absolutely love this shift knob! The best part is that I can switch it between my car and my racing sim using an adapter. It has the perfect weight—not too heavy and not too light—and it looks fantastic. I’ve dropped it twice already, and there are no visible scratches. The threads are excellent, and it screws on smoothly. Honestly, for the price, it’s amazing."

"When I first got this knob, it felt a little small right out of the box. After measuring, I found it to be 1.95 inches, which is smaller than the product description. It doesn’t feel comfortable to grip, as my fingers end up dangling at the tips. Although it looks nice and feels solid due to its weight, I just wish it were a bit bigger."

"I used this knob to place the shifter closer to the transfer case and steering wheel. It made dropping into a lower gear on trails safer and easier. I'd definitely purchase it again due to its low cost, good looks, quality, and fitment."

"For my SimMagic DS8x shifter, I wanted a weighted shift knob that wouldn’t break the bank. This one feels great, and while the texture might be a bit rough on bare hands, I wear gloves while sim racing. It has a perfect grip with gloves, and the weight compares well to my more expensive Mishimoto knob."

"I can’t believe I waited so long to buy this! My OEM shift knob was terrible, leading to accidental short shifts. This one offers ease of shifting and has a perfect height. The knurling gives me a great positive grip, and the solid aluminum construction is impressive. Thank you!"

“The katana design is amazing! I love how it stands out as a gear shifter. The installation was a breeze, and I appreciate the multiple adapters included. It's definitely a conversation starter, and my friends think it's really cool!”

“Overall, it's a solid product! While it's not completely metal, the lightweight design means no added stress on the gear shift. Just a heads-up, the handle doesn't slide down very far, which can block some controls. Still, I recommend it for its unique look!”

“I had so much fun installing this! The katana handle feels great in my hand, especially compared to the stock shifter. It’s held up well so far, and I love the way it looks in my car. My friends are always impressed!”

"I was really impressed with the quality of this shift knob. It has a great heavy feel, and the red carbon fiber look has a nice depth to it. Plus, it came with adapters for different thread sizes. I would definitely recommend it!"

"I installed this on my Komatsu D20P bulldozer for the throttle knob. It looks super cool and feels great in my hand. The brass bushing adapters for different sizes made it super easy to install, and it feels very sturdy."

"For the price, I wasn't expecting much. But this knob is a lot nicer than I anticipated. It has a weighted feel, fits great, and is made of real carbon. I'm really happy with it!"

"I finally found a purple shift knob that fits my 2005 Scion tC perfectly. It wasn't too tall, so it didn’t obstruct the cubby hole, and installation was a breeze. I even added a custom Decepticon sticker and a TRD sticker on the opposite side. The purple finish is excellent and matches my purple wheels. After more than a year in use, it hasn’t faded, though there are some tiny nicks from handling. The threaded adapters are still strong, and the knob hasn’t loosened like others I’ve owned. It’s a high-quality shift knob!"

"I have this installed on my truck for several months, and I absolutely love it. The installation was straightforward, and the paint has held up well. It’s simple, sleek, and sturdy. I would definitely buy it again for my next vehicle!"

"I replaced the factory shifter on my 2012 Toyota Prius, and even though the neon chrome knob didn’t fit as advertised, I found a quick fix. By wrapping some electrical tape around the shifter rod, it fits snugly now and looks great!"

"I recently added this knob to my 2000 Honda Prelude and I’m thrilled with the color combo alongside my hybrid racing shift boot collar. The quality is exceptional and the feel is fantastic. Being metal, it does get affected by the weather, but I just put a beanie over it if I'm worried about the temperature."

"This shift knob is fantastic! It’s so simple and fits my car perfectly. I couldn’t ask for better."

"After years with a loose aftermarket shift knob, I found this one and it's a game changer! It attached tight and has a wonderful density in my hand. Driving my Honda Fit feels much more enjoyable now. I genuinely should have switched to this years ago!"

"I loved the multiple options for a perfect fit. Installation was a breeze, but I did over-tighten it and ended up with an upside-down 8. Despite my mistake, the quality and functionality are phenomenal. No tarnishing or cracks—it's perfect for my vehicle!"

"I purchased this for my boyfriend's birthday, and it worked wonderfully for the hour he was driving until the knob fell off. The threading was gone, and we can't find it now. I'm super sad because it’s such a beautiful design, and the weight and comfort were amazing!"

"I knew what I was getting into and had reasonable expectations. For the price I paid, it's great and I really like it."

"I found this shift knob to be awesome! It's lightweight and the carbon fiber appearance is on point. Installation was super easy and it fits perfectly."

"I needed a replacement for the poor quality shift knobs from Fanatec, and this one is perfect. Whether it's fake carbon fiber or not, the clean pattern and great size make it feel amazing in my hand while shifting. Definitely a great buy!"

"I could have gone for a cheap 3D printed knob, but I chose this quality piece instead. The metal base provides the perfect weight, and the carbon fiber wrap is smooth and soft. It even comes with three base fittings, one of which fit my Logitech shifter perfectly. Just needed a screwdriver for the original knob and I have no regrets!"

"I found it easy to install and it works perfectly. It also looks amazing! The screws were the right size and it fits like a glove."

"I bought this because it looks awesome, but unfortunately, it didn't fit my car. However, I put in a bit of effort to make it work, and I believe anyone with an extra hour can handle it. The material feels high-quality, so I expect it to last."

"This has really made my car look fancy. I feel like I'm in Kill Bill while shifting gears!"
