Eriksf250 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Has anyone put an aftermarket shift knob on a 12spd? I was thinking about putting a pair of blue glitter shift knobs on the RD and didn't know if it was possible or what the thread type/size was for both sticks. Any help will be greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrybarbon Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Is this what you mean? This is our 10 spd same as the 12 spd lever and splitter. We had a solid piece of wood shaped to copy the gear knob in our Toyota Prado auto shift knob. We had a metal tube threaded to same as the gear lever, drilled hole into bottom of wood knob and set the metal tube with industrial glue into the hole. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've I've never seen any 12 speeds with custom shift knobs so I wasn't sure if it was possible. 14 hours ago, Brian L Blaylock said: Yes I have put after market shift knobs on both sticks on my 12 speed Brian do you have any pictures of it? You wouldn't happen to know the thread size? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
