Got the LED strip yesterday and got a chance to "install" it. The install was just sliding it under the headlamp and using a 9v to light it up. I haven't had to take the nose off yet and expect it to be a little nerve wracking the first time so I wanna give myself a whole day to do it.

A silly question, will it be brighter once it is hooked up to the system than with the 9v battery?

Just an update. Just walked back into the house from taking my car for a spin after installing the PWJDM knob. I have to say, this knob makes the stock throw feel nice and crisp! A lot of that clunky feeling when shifting has been eliminated.

I'd say yes I don't really see how the stock setup could be improved anymore. Shifts are pretty short, and with how much clunkiness got eliminated I'd say it's a night and day feeling. Is that how you felt switching out the knob?

I concur with your opinion. The PWJDM knob made shifting much cleaner.

Alcheng, you have made a grevious error: those are not cheez fries!

That's an unforgivable foul, good sir!

I think chili cheez fries might make up for this little issue. I might be able to convince Ken-San to let this little incident be without further punishment!
