Short Shifter Part - Will it fit my Car?

[aaronng]

I find the spoon ones too light. I prefer the skunk2 knobs instead.

It says they are all discontinued.... Is there anything I should know specifically about when choosing one? Or do all I have to find out is that it fits a Honda Accord Euro? Are there any particular qualities I should look for?????

you need to confirm the thread pattern,

I am not too sure on this cause mine doesnt use the shifter thread, i have the adapter on it.

I think it's a M12 thread. <--- aaron correct me on this.

if the thread pattern is wrong, how much does an adaptor cost? is it lots? or not much?

mine came with it and it sits ontop of the thread by 3 carbon screws which sit on the thread.

You need to clarify with the seller what thread pattern it uses, or find a nut which can screw into the shifter thread and you'll know what size thread it is.

Honda's thread pattern is M10 x 1.5

bah thanks aaron, i forgotten.... too many M10's and M12 on the euro.... hahaha

As long as it says it is for Honda or Acura manual transmission, you'll be alright. Toyota won't fit, I've tried that. They use M12 I think.

Wonderful wonderful. You both know so much! Do you work in the car industry? Or just read alot?

Im just basically looking for a heavier knob, is that correct?

Yeah, I found that I preferred a heavier knob. But you might find that you prefer a lighter knob. Best is to come to an Euro meet and try out other knobs. lol

lol lol... okay, maybe i should find out what most people prefer... and go with that..
