Let's talk shift knobs! Post your knob experience!
Do you have a shift knob that you like? Post pics and a purchase link!
I'm looking for something slightly shorter than stock, ideally not metal as I think that will get very hot in the summertime. I also like knobs that arent round, oddly enough. One of my favorite shifte knob shapes is the ///M knob in my e90 like shown below: Raceseng has caught my eye because they have an adapter that you put on the shaft that is adjustable in height. Does anyone have experience with this company? https://www.urotuning.com/pages/sear...nob%20raceseng Thanks!

I never really liked OEM
Last couple months I was running the BMW Performance one and really liked it - way shorter throw and felt very direct (pictured here) Gonna try out the LCI M Performance one next

You can take off, or put the OEM knob on easily. There is nothing to worry about...

I just used a couple blobs of hot glue in case I ever want to do it again. Doesn't really need anything at all as the top of the shift level and the shift knob will hold it fine.
