its so sad that manual trannys are going away it is so much fun to drive a manual does the ex 5 speed knob come off?

 

[webby]

yes - the knob comes off the 5sp as well as the 6sp

 

[12civic5speed]

the same way?

 

[webby]

I haven't tried it on the 2012 5speed, but I would imagine it comes off in the same way as the 6spd.

 

[12civic5speed]

i am scared to take it off lol

I got a TWM stainless steel with an extender. Mines not an SI so the stock shift knob has this chrome-colored plasticthing thats more oval shaped and its pretty tight in the leather. After you unscrew the knob, theres really no other way to take it off the leather part besides cutting the zip-tie and pulling the plastic thing off as hard as you can. Thats what i did, then you just screw on whatever shift knob you got. I just forgot to put the zip-tie back on the inside!! lol

As soon as the weather got a little cold, I hated holding the oem knob, which is a really nice item otherwise. Here's my most current choice. Doesn't get too cold, and warms up nicely in hand.




I also have a red "ol school" that I am not using. May go on the block.

Thanks. It's bottomed (or topped) out in the ball, which is hollow, and it's in 2d gear, which might make it look lower. It's somewhat lower than std, but not much more than @ 1/2" or so.

We're always curious to see what kinds of Shift Knobs people are rocking in their interiors; so don't be shy and post up a picture of YOUR shift knob!

After some research we've noted that our best seller for the 9th Gen Civic is the M1 Abrams in Gunmetal Finish.

POST THEM UP!

If that shift boot was available for the 9th gen, I'd buy it in a minute.

What brand is that? I wonder if they have a black/blue color combo?

I was thinking the same thing, that boot is nice looking.

Sickspeed from ebay. They have all sorts of combos. Here's one:

Just make sure you order M10 x 1.5 for the style you want, so you get the correct threaded sleeve for the 2012 Si shifter.
