Paul93Lotus 7 Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 (edited) Saw these Sparco knobs which I thought are nice.... http://www.sparcousa.com/popupImage.asp?id=3393 Available in other colors, including all black...it's the Litium SV and will work with lift-reverse. I know Richbrook makes a "ball type" similar to the Lotus one, though getting a 2nd degree burn during the summer tends to make me hesitant. I have an all metal one in my Mustang, and I thought the shift pattern engraved into it was getting burned into my hand like that guy in Raiders of the Lost Ark! what other alternatives are there, and if you have a different one, could you post a pic? If you have a metal one, I'd like to see those too, I'd make the burning hand sacrifice for the coolness factor Don't leave out the brand if you know it!

Vulcan Grey 251 Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 The MOMO Race knob "with reverse" works http://www.eraceparts.com/item.jhtml;$...mp;PRID=1514028 it holds on with a set screw (grub screw) which isn't the most elegant, but easy to install and remove. Looks good in my Friends 89 Esprit. Quote Travis Vulcan Grey 89SE My Lotus Photo and Projects Album Link to post Share on other sites

red vtec 177 Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 I have a momo lookalike one from ebay Quote Amateurs built the Ark Professionals built the Titanic "I haven't ridden in cars pulled by cows before" "Bullocks, Mr.Belcher" "No, I haven't, honestly" Link to post Share on other sites
doct93 2 Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 Where do you get this ? And the centre Lotus logo ? Matches indeed perfect the steering wheel ! It's a standard Momo from Halfords as I recall. The Lotus logo was a pin badge withe the pin cut off - fits perfectly where the Momo logo went. Don't look at the dirt.....!

OwenGT3 179 Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 (edited) Hi, They do thes ones in Maplins that light up! Light up gear knob! It's either something you like or dislike, but the knob is a nice design, so you could always take the batteries out if you don't want it to light up, cheap as well! Apparently it works on lift up gear knobs as well! Owen Edited October 28, 2007 by OwenGT3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Qavion 19 Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 I just received a Momo knob in the mail (ordered on eBay). Does this look like typical Momo quality? The badge isn't central and the area around it looks tarnished (or perhaps discoloured from excess glue). Thanks Ian. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vulcan Grey 251 Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 yeah that looks like the MOMO knob that I have. now that I have a 3D printer, I suppose I can make my own shift knob... http://www.thingiverse.com/search/page:2?q=shift+knob&sa= How about the Daft Punk knob? or this one?
