I personally find the first one to be hideous... and the second one looks like a knock-off of the real TRD knob.
I made my own knob, so I can't really recommend one knob over another, but there is a TRD one that I like... http://cgi.ebay.com/New-TRD-Gear-Shift-Kno...=item2c57f78e1d -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money

I agree. The first one is fugly. If you are deciding between those two, definitely the second one. Myself, I've had RAZO carbon fiber/aluminum knob in my Celica for a while now. Together with short shifter it feels really good. This one:

I've always liked the OEM leather with red stitching shiftknob. Problem is its so expensive. I found a cheaper alternative on ebay though for about $20USD, Looks pretty good with a matching shift boot.
 Only things i dont like is how it has Momo embroided on it, when for that price it definately aint real momo, and its fairly lightweight. found an ebay link here This post has been edited by Dyran: Nov 7, 2010 - 4:35 PM -------------------- Speeding doesn't kill! It never has!

Had a weighted metal knob that had the set screws, was always hot as $hit, and came loose on me so i threw that in the garbage and got the leather trd knob, the longer one, and i love it, just wish it was a little heavier

I had the black isotta puma shifter knob in mine. Got bored of it and realized I like the stock one better. Still have it laying around somewhere if anyone wants to make an offer.

I like that one. IMO, it would've looked better in black.
