Hi - anyone have one of these reproduction shift knobs that has the lense? How close is it to the real deal? From this photo, it looks like the reproduction lense is smaller...

Or am I too anal retentive?

Am I really even going to spend $180 on this... ?!?!

I suppose it could be more expensive...

I wouldn't spend that much on a repro, personally... I'm a CHEAP SOB tho... it would have to be PERFECT in material and looks for concourse to even consider it... so if you aren't going to concourse... I can't imagine it being worth it...

my opinion, of course... if it doesn't make driving the car more enjoyable, I'm not the type to spend it. is anyone going to peep in your car and say "WOW! look at that shift knob?"

Keep shoppin man, $180 is steep for that guy, I know it can be had for $130 $139....if I can remember where I'll shoot you a PM.

I think I saw a NOS knob come up a year ago or so for less than 180... that's part of why I am critical of a repro
