Im interested in getting the Razo RA107. Its beautiful!




You guys think it would look wierd on a MT? Im trying to think of how to make the shift boot fit with it. I dont think the stock shift collar would look good with the shift knob.

Any ideas of to make the knob fit with the boot/collar?

^ You think so? See how narrow it is at the bottom? I want to get a shift boot collar that will match the color and size of the knob's bottom.

One other idea I was thinking of was having a pseudo- gated shifter trim! :twisted: Then I would even have to worry about a shift boot or collar.

Yeah man, its pretty sick. Just search "Razo ra107" in google. It pops up everywhere. You got AT right? It should just screw on!

I think this knob looks really good, but the problem lies within the function.

Since this was designed for an AT, you'll notice a rounded shape which allows for a large grip and easy front to back motion.

I don't think this knob will be durable and provide enough grip to be used on a MT.

Looks great, but I think the function will leave much to be desired.

^ Yeah true

Luckily it does fit the 12mm manual shifty shaft thingy though. Im sick of my crudy pepboys shift knob.

I'm diggin it. You could ask Doc I about making you a custom delrin collar if you give him the width of the bottom of the bezel. Then you could get a boot through redline that's a little more tapered like one of the automatic ones.

As for functionality, Orin raises a good point. I'd still try it out, and if you don't have enough grip just rock a glove or sell it.
