Show me your shift knobs

So I broke my Auto Solutions shifter trying to remove a shift knob. Fast forward 2 months and Ronald made me a new one.

I'm now going through a Shift knob search. I currently have a Black Forest one and while It's ok, I don't love it.

My new shifter is 1" taller than factory and I sit low due to the Team Schirmer brackets and bucket seats. I love the combo as the net height result is more like 3" taller than factory would be.

Thanks for your thoughts.

Is this something I should worry about?

I installed a Turner tall knob, I swear I didn't glue it. It should have popped right off. I couldn't get it off and just kept pulling and BAM, snapped Ronald's shifter, not his fault I guess I'm strong? I was really pulling for like 2 min straight.

I never had an issue before or on the track, Ronald makes a great product.

Anyway my mechanic couldn't get it off either so we cut if off and installed a new shifter.
