    Auto gear knob or not?

    Hi guys, just wanted some advice on whether I should try this cheap mod of replacing the stock auto gear knob:

    OR

    +

    Disclaimer: Don't really need the debate of turning an auto into a manual looking car, cause honestly I just want to improve the interior.

    So do you guys think this would work on Civic FD auto? I have seen someone done this in the DIY section but the pics in those posts are all dead links... Also thought it's good to share if it's good/cheap product + easy mod.

    Cheers!

    ^ those look nice but I have to admit, I quite like the feel of the stock Civic auto lever. It's quite nicely textured- unlike some of the crappy older autos from the 90s.
