I setup a group buy awhile back in 2007 that was for the TRD leather shift knob, and it's still going on, so I thought I'd let you guys in on it as well (I started it up on a Supra forum I post at). It is for this knob here:
![]() I just got one myself, and I must say that it's awesome. The knob is heavy, and it conforms nicely to your hand. If you want one, send a Paypal payment of $69.50 to Ironhead Toyota at Toyotaparts@irontoad.com, and under misc. notes put "TRD shift knob group buy, part #: PTR04-00000-05". Hope some of you guys will take advantage of this. Here is what the knob looks like installed: ![]() ![]() -Matt This post has been edited by GotToyota: Aug 13, 2008 - 8:30 AM |

Another thing to note - this knob also shortens the height of the shifter assembly by a descent amount as the threads are very high up in the knob so if you don't want a short shifter this will give the illusion of a shorter throw [Also if you already have one of those rediculously short shifters you may need to be advised that you might be reaching into the shifter bezil with this knob
