I just finished machining my custom spectra plywood shift knob. It’s not perfect with a groove I accidentally cut into it, but I’m pretty pleased otherwise. I will make sure not to make this mistake on my second one.

No picture but I wanted to say it’s possible to pop a unreadably shattered looking pattern button out of a Bakelite knob and replace it with one pulled out of a Dansk plastic knob. If you decide to do it know it could go wrong and any of the parts can get ruined during the process. I got lucky and nothing broke. Just used a knife and carefully pried.

I’ve had a number of different shift knobs on my car. The original, which is perfect, a 914rubber replica, a couple different MOMO knobs in black and yellow, but when I saw Zach’s 917 knob I knew I had found the shift knob love of my life. I’d buy a couple more if he still made them. Just to make sure if it ever broke...

I guess the saying "Whatever floats your boat" applies here, but I just think a 914 should have an original style 914 shift knob as Fritz screwed on at the factory.

Purchased it on ebay but can't recall from who.
I have to modify a bolt so it fits my Rennshifter handle then I can install this shift knob.
