I have the GReddy CW. I just bellow out some nice profane phrases when shifting. Seems to work for me.

well the wat I see it you have two options: You could either A. get an OEM leather shift knob, or B. (and this is the option I would suggest in your case) get this...

If you have one of those window shade, doesn't it stop the sun from coming in to heat up the shifter? If they made something like that for a condom, you won't have to worry about getting anybody pregnant.

My hand turns red like I just went at it with myself driving to work.

Nobody jumps in their car and lightly touches their shift knob. Just grab and throw in reverse
