    Great question. I was looking for one, too, since the leather wrap on mine is starting to fray. Amazon has a few, but the prices are up there.

    Re: Automatic Shift knobs

    Not to steal your thread, but do any of the guys in Japan know of a rec yard I might be able to check out to find a new 4EAT shift knob? I don't even know where to look for the yards. Maybe I can find a couple and send one MarkSubi's way.

    I haven't really dug around in any of the auto stores here, but I will keep an eye open. I would love to get a momo knob to match my steering wheel.

    Re: Automatic Shift knobs

    you can use a manual shifter for an auto, but the shifter won't lock into place anymore. What I mean is that if you are driving and hit the stick forward, there is not interlock to prevent you from slamming your transmission into park. One of the guys i work with has a similar set up on his Honda.

    Re: Automatic Shift knobs

    Id do it with a standard shift knob but other only ones i want are the crystal bubble shifters and idk if the under side hole would even go onto my shift rod. I have a 95 Legacy so its one of those ugly fat auto shifters. Oh and does this silver shifter have a spring it? because with no button how are you able to put it in gear?

    Re: Automatic Shift knobs

    With a manual shifter, you don't push anything, it just moves freely.

    Re: Automatic Shift knobs

    idk how they did it but i saw a vw passat that was an auto and to shift they just lifted up on the shifter and pulled it back in to drive.

    i dont have a clue on what they did/changed. idk how those auto shifters are set up
