I agree, it looks great on my work bench. Seriously it's a very nice item.

I have one of Mark's first edition shift knobs and it is great, so the second generation version must really be nice!

I had both the first and second generation. Coincidentally, I also have one of the nicest original shift knobs most people who look at it have ever seen. I couldn't find it in all the boxes and that is why I went with Mark's creation when I took off my aftermarket knob that kept coming off during shifts... Now that I have found it, I see such little difference, I don't see any reason to put the original back on. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Nice work Mark!
