For those interested in after market shift knobs, i think this will help.... momo stuff, the airleather series in more colors than just black like on the site.... I may order the blue one for myself, but they have red and yellow. I had the red airleather shift knob in my old cavalier, it was a great piece.....

Edit: Forgot the link.....

80-100 bucks sounds a lil pricey for a shift knob dont it

 

Its a freaking momo....... not apc sorry......
Do you know of the company MOMO? Italian engineering at its finest...... Look them up, and you will understand why

 

Haha, some people don't care where its from.
$80-$100 can go to more important things than just a knob.

 

im not saying it couldnt...... but you get what you pay for.......

 

not really interested in a shift ***... it only adds 10-12 hp.... but nice link. momo, does make some quality products, but still, they are pricey!

 

ital yes i kno momo lmao i was going to get a saleen focus with full momo racing seats and momo interior momo also makes alot of stuff for f1 cars like the seats and steering wheels and still i dont care if it said rolex on it 80-100 bucks is alot for a knob where people could take there money and put it into there car on something more useful. and u say i start with u u started with me acting like i dont know anything i may not know much but doesnt give u the right to be like that

 

Ill be geting a strut bar long befor I buy a 100 shift knob!

Later

 

i have a momo shift knob on order but im nto sure if tis going to fit in the ss\sc :S

 

I just paid $75 bucks for a Sparco shift knob. It is so damn nice! I'll post pictures, and a custom how-to I figured out for you guys when i have time!

 

Yeah i'd like a how-to on getting the SS shift knob off for a new one.

 

I wonder if they make one for the Auto

 

Not one of those shift knobs in that link will work in a SS/SC though . SS/SC need a reverse lockout spec knob , theres not to many styles to choose from that are reverse lockout compatible

Not sure what model cobalt you have , but thought I mention that before you waste your money .

 

I only found two styles. One is the Sparco Globe-x and the other is the MOMO Airleather.

 

someone said the reverse lockout is just a saftey feature, there has to be a way to take it off...... and yeah, i know momo has one or 2 that work with it....

 

there is, take out the little clip. tada. no more reverse lock out

 

whats wrong with the stock shift knob?

 

can you keep the reverse lock out on if you chnge out the knob?

 

only if the new knob has it. none i saw in the link had it

 

try the momo website, they have 2, then cross referance and see if it is on the cheaper site....

 

Yah "engineering at it's finest"... NOT!
I have red momo foot pedals. The gas pedal already has a chip in it the size of a dime and it's only 4mths old.

Damn high heels... lol! No... seriously.

 

^^

 

Actually, I'm quite pissed

 

Blondie, I would be also! Which pedals retrofit up on the stock SS?

J

 

Huh? Do you mean which pedals do I have? Couldn't tell ya. I took off the stock pedals, and screwed these ones in. They aren't shiny, they are a nice dull red with a few thin silver lines going thru them. They are posted in the gallery under SSBlondie I think...
