Except it made shifting a little bit harder. I would have to force or go back to the previous gear. Otherwise it a great shift knob,

I got a good chuckle out of that.

I have to use two hands to shift, 'cause I also use an Axxial short shifter in conjunction with a countersunk knob.

Keep in mind it's a longer reach to the shift knob from the steering wheel with a shorter and/or lower knob. A true short-shifter reduces the shift throws but keeps the shifter height. Also, most shift knobs are intentionally heavy to provide momentum when moving the shift linkage. I love the stock shifter in the S2000, these knobs seem to be a fix to a nonexistent problem.
