well, #2 would be better, but I don't know how you'd attatch the shifter boot.

i'd say whichever one is more comfortable in your hand, go down to your local rice shop and try some out

1, thats like the one I almost bought only the one I was gona get was leather all the way around not half leather half metal...its looks really good IMO. I think the 2nd one would look weird.

WTF is the difference besides the bases of the two?  They are the same knob name on Momo's site, but the bottom one has an "S" after the name...Does the bottom one screw on instead of using set screws?  That's the only thing I can think of, since the bottom knob has no collar ring around the base.

#2. It looks better fat at the bottom where the leather is.

Momo's suck just to be honest. They dont thread on. I would find one that does like the Greddy Ones.

My Momo Crystal Shifter fell apart a million times. Not to meantion every Momo shift knob I have ever ran across has the same quality as your local pep boys shift knob.

I dunno about Momo's sucking.... I've had my Race Airleather knob on for a while (the full leather version of #1) and it definitely feels nicer than the pepboys knob it replaced <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>
