hey in relation to changing your gear knob in a manual, my bora had a little warning in the service book about resting on the shifter as it would prematurely wear something? would i have to worry about this if i got a heavier shifter? i wish i could remember what it said it weared out

Nah, you'll be alright. The weight of the knob is nothing compared to the weight of your hand.

in regards to aaron's comment, your weight of your hand compared to the weight of my butt is nothing.

If you guys are thinking dirty STOP IT!
Only because at my work carpark if i park on the right side spot, there isn't enough room for me to open and close the door so i get out on the passenger side. :p

My hand is heavier. I think about 3-5kg for hand up to shoulder.
