Short Shift Shift Knob Combo

Sup guys, so i'm thinking of grabbing a short shifter from these guys and they throw in a free weighted knob. a bit pricey but i have heard good things just wondering if anyone has one and can provide some intel before i buy. Cheers!

I've got one. While I never had any issues with mine, if I was to buy one now I'd get the one from OTTP. Everyone that has had both says the OTTP one is hands down better in every way than the TWM. And even paying extra for the Delrin knob from them it still comes out cheaper than the TWM kit.

Edit: If you add all the goodies up(shifter/knob/bushings/clamp) you'll end up saving around $80 for a superior product.

I love mine too. Got the weighted SS knob with the 5-speed engraving. Shifts so smooth.

As far as I know OTTP doesn't make a short throw shifter for the 2.2 Cobalts. Iirc when I was shopping for one I only had the choice between TWM and Hurst.

For base models, billet pro shop is also a good option.

I tried to find BPS short throw shifters online for base model Cobalts and had no luck. Am I just being silly or did they discontinue it?

Had the ottp sts with the delrin knob in my lsj. Loved it, was super nice looking and the shift pattern was super tight. 5th wasnt horrible to find with it either.
