Why would you want the shift knob lower? Wouldn't you want the shift knob closest to the steering wheel as possible? Im thinking of getting an 3" extension like I have on my STi...


I see a lot of nice Al and Ti shift knobs.
Don't you guys ever have problem grabbing it on a hot summer days? or cold morning like these days? what would be the best solution? I don't want the LONG leather wrapped OEM one.. any suggestions????

Makes shifting faster. The higher the knob is to the base the farther you have to move your hand to get it in gear.

You do know its more important to keep your hand on the 9 & 3 o'clock hand position at all times. If you have a lower knob, the longer it takes to reach for it when its time to shift. And your left with one hand to steer.
