I have been using the standard, aftermarket, Dansk shift knob. So far, I've gone through two of them, they both have broken around the bottom where the shift knob mates with the shifter itself.
The plastic on both appears to have just given away.
I like the look of the original style shift knob but, I don't want to continually replace them either.
Anyone have any suggestions on a replacement?
