Dildo Shift Knob

i don't get the hype of these dildo shift knobs, they don't look good (imo) and they surely don't look like they improve functionality.

What do you guys think of them?

IDK. They're alright.

Nobody cares, some likes slam the living crap out of the shifter from gear to gear, some prefer short shifters to just flick it gear to gear. I'm not a fan of them cuz I've always been the short throw, short shifter kinda guy.

If it's dumb then don't comment on it. I want to know what people think of them. I mean since you already took the effort to comment on this thread you could have at least voiced your opinion on these dildo shifters.

This, I've seen many of them break after only a short time of use, plus there is a reason people put short throw shifters on their cars, why would you want to increase the length of time to change gears? Plus they look like they came off an old chandelier
Quick, somebody photoshop this thing pink and light blue with bubbles in it, and don't forget to add hellaflush/illest/stance/weksos

Long shift knobs + short throw shifters combo help decrease the time that it takes to get your shifting hand back on the steering wheel for more control of the car.

I've never thought that my hand was off the wheel for too long during drifting.

Not to mention short shifters feel horrible (personal opinion).

I knew it was only a matter of time before a pic like that surfaced. Dude giving his tranny member head.....





Blown glass.



matching.



I like a variety of shift knobs. I currently have a stock one. it's ok. Bubble or beer tap is next because i think those are cool. Has nothing to do with performance really. Artsy autoculture type stuff.....
