Subject: Re: shift knob Tue Jul 17, 2007 4:16 pm

Pull the pin that is in the front of the knob. Posted the instructions here somewhere before but can't locate them right now?!?

Do you have any pics of the woodgrain one? Where did you get it? I'd like to pic up one that matches my dashkit.

I like that but I don't know if I like $113.32 worth of it. wink

I think that color is a little lighter than my dashkit anyway. Thanks though. wink

What is the inner diameter to our shifter?

This is the specs on the one I was looking at
Inner Diameter (17mm, .67", 5/8)

Subject: Re: shift knob Sat Jul 21, 2007 10:30 pm

i believe ours is 15mm b/c thats what the camaro is and they use the same shifter as us.

INSTALATION:COMES WITH ALLEN WRENCH AND 3 SCREWS, THAT YOU TIGHTEN AGAINST THE SHIFT ROD.

FAQ: What if I have more of a gap?

PICK UP THE INTER DIAMETOR EXCESS GAP WITH BLACK TAPE OR PLASTIC TUBING WHICH CAN BE FOUND AT A HARDWARE STORE

The only time this will not fit your car is if the shift rod diameter is bigger than the opening of the shift knob

Using plastic tubing to increase the diameter of a rod is pretty common...not really cheezy at all.. smile

I'm not sure if that's totoally obscene because it's out of a Camaro or a nod to the Riv's sporty side because it's out of a Camaro. I've always thought the Aurora had a much better looking shift knob so maybe it's the former.
