Did you guys put loctite on again? Mine screwed down to the perfect position (with and without the metal washer, didn't seem to make a difference) so I'm kinda hesitant to put loctite on after the hell I went through removing the stock knob this morning but I don't want it coming loose or rattling or anything?

Got my replacement yesterday. I used to have a Forged Performance knob that I loved, but I like this one much better.
Hope I didn't put on too much Loctite.
I'm dreading next summer when I stick in a subwoofer.

Two days before Christmas. New knob and carbon fiber steering wheel.

The shift knobs look great!

I was wondering if there's any progress on the brake ducts? Thanks!

NO Loctite here either. Screwed down into the perfect position with shift pattern slightly facing the driver side Just how I like it.

Merry Xmas everyone!

I used the Loctite because mine was about a quarter turn off. Hated to use it, but didn't want to take the time to try and modify it.

What is the point of these different washers? Does it make the shift knob sit different?

Ate you speaking of the different colored finisher rings? They are simply to make a nicer visual transition to the shift boot.

No I was talking about the washers that people are going out and buying. Not the one that comes with the shift knob.

The washers snug the boot up under the finishing ring on the shift knob.

I have had one too many egg nogs. One of presents (to myself) was the knob. I loveee the weight. However there were a few imperfections in the engraving, but nothing I can't live with, and would still repeat the purchase if I could. Looking forward to the diffuser. I hope it's going to be better than evo-R's. (not that that would be hard). Haha.

Here is the original post that Password JDM posted, FYI:

I am providing as an example pictures posted earlier by our illustrious, Mr. Onzedge (I hope he does not mind):

Before extra O-rings (provided complimentary by Password JDM):


After extra O-rings:


Cool? Awwwright!

Thanks for brining that up for me. I looked through the whole thread and must have just over looked it. Waiting to get the right tools now to take off the oem knob, two pliers isn't quite getting it : /
