The best shift knob for the MR is the OEM Mitsubishi shift knob which is blue and silver. Matches the blue recaro seats. This is an OEM option in Japan and it is better constructed than the USDM version. Look at the website of Japan Parts where I ordered mine. Love my shift knob. Exactly the same as the stock one but the two pieces are actually bolted together rather than glued together like the stock one. If you look closely at your silver MR shift knob you will notice that there are just indentations on the top of the knob. The JDM version actually has hex bolts in each hole holding the 2 pieces together. Fits perfectly since it is an OEM item and has the same 6 speed design found on the stock MR shift knob. Feels all together different in your hand than the USDM shift knob. Only downside is it is a bit pricey.

my avitar gets excited about the razo counterweight

 

Yea unless it has been sitting in direct sunlight Hot!!

 

that might not work with a 6mt cause of the position of the Reverse gear in 6mt.
you have to use a spacer for it.. to rise the shift knop up a bit..so you can use Reverse with no problem.
