I'm still waiting for mine to come in. They "ordered it" about 2 months ago.

EDIT:We'll see what they do, cause when I had the knob come off in my hand they epoxied it back on. Two days later the diagram came off.

This happened to me this week. I told them to fix it because it was loose, and didn't want it falling off, I was having them fix my brakes at the same time, they said they couldn't 'duplicate the error' or something so they didn't fix it.

I'm just gonna leave it off and buy the short-throw i've seen around.

I've heard of several people with this problem. I'm not too worried about it, mine's outta there as soon as the Hurst comes in anyway.

Sloppy Knob

My diagram came off right in my hand when I was leaving a bar... I just dropped it in the street at the red light. Looking for somehting else right now.

It would be easier if I kept the darn little thing... superglue would probably work the best.

now I'm looking for something in an LED style or somethng. Maybe a Rolex (j/k) knob or something.


I've also managed to push the sunroof button all the way throught the headliner...

That's funny cause the top of my shifter knob is coming loose now too. And my sunroof button is slightly angled now. I'm gonna bring these issues up next time I see the dealer.

I've had the shift pattern fall off once...laughed because I JUST turned in a repair order on it for something else

haven't had it come off since...if it does I'm going with an aftermarket shifter
