Leather Shift Knob
 

I've been trying like hell to find a shop that can cover my OEM knob in leather, and can't find one. Some have tried but at the end they tell me they can't get it to work. Yet, I know Star Tech and other have done it for purposes of taking pictures only. They don't sell them. Someone had to do it, so it's been done. Here's a picture of what I want.


Does anyone know of a local shop in your area that can do it? I'm willing to ship it to them.

Have you tried Riggs brothers?

Re: Leather Shift Knob
 

No, where are they located? Do you have contact information for them?

Re: Leather Shift Knob
 

Hey FP,
I think these guys can help you out. For you the closest location is in St.Charles.I had the one in Naperville tint my windows. They do quality work and have been around for many years. Good Luck.

Riggs Brothers Tops & Interior, 1608 N Aurora Rd, Naperville, IL 60563

(630) 548-1717 riggsbros.com 1608 N Aurora Rd, Naperville, IL 60563

They have I think 5 shops in the chi-area.


Probably my family has spent in the neighborhood of 15,000 with them over like 20-30 years.

Can't get you a discount but I will vouch for their excellent work...last thing they did for us was an interiior for a golf cart that matches brand new caddy interior...with the tucks and the same plush leather material!...couldn't tell you were sitting on the cart or in a car!

And they will try anything...have taken items too them and said what do you think of this...and they have made it a reality!...

Not cheap by the way,

Re: Leather Shift Knob
 

Thanks guys, I will try them.

Re: Leather Shift Knob
 

FP - let me no the cost I might be interested in getting mine done.

Re: Leather Shift Knob
 

X2 for me!

Re: Leather Shift Knob
 

momo and other make leather **** knobs with matching boots if this road doesnt take you anywhere, you can get them online at the cardomain store.

Re: Leather Shift Knob

Re: Leather Shift Knob
 

Thanks I have a momo, but I really like the OEM in leather.

I'm on a mission. :p

Re: Leather Shift Knob
 

FP, I'm also interested in covering my shift knob in leather. If this avenue is successful, let me know.

Re: Leather Shift Knob
 

I'll let you guys know how it works out. It would be nice if one of the guys closer to the shop could find out if they can get it done.

Re: Leather Shift Knob
 

Hey FP, have you given any thought to a leather SLK shifter knob? I bought one off E-bay, it looks OEM and I really like it.

Re: Leather Shift Knob
 

How about a picture.

Re: Leather Shift Knob
 

Here's one, but not a very good one, (Blurry).

Re: Leather Shift Knob
 

It's very nice and a good alternative, but I really, really want the OEM in leather. I guess if I can't do it, I'll go for this one.

Re: Leather Shift Knob
 

This is the OEM shift knob? This looks pretty sharp. :)
Anyone know the price on this?
I'm going to look it up and I'll post the price if no one beats me to it.

EDIT.

I can't find one, nor can I find a part number.
My dealer asked for a part number because he can't find one in the catalog. :p
Go figure...

Btw, he said he thought the 06s came with a leather autostick shift knob as standard... I think he is probably wrong.
Anyone know?

Thanks.

Re: Leather Shift Knob
 

Yes. I did see that one and it looks good too.

I interpreted one of the posts as stating there was a leather oem autostick shift knob available as an accessory.
