Default Owners of Voodoo Shift Knobs?

I have the OEM titanium shift knob, and it really gets really hot on sunny days and after the car has been used. I have read many threads on how happy everyone has been with the voodoo shifters. For those you that have the titanium, pearl, or aluminium voodoo shifter, Do you like them? and Do they get real hot like the OEM Shift Knob? thanks GaToR

Ive got the pearl knob. Its only been HOT once, and that was mostly transmission heat-related i think - while at thunderhill, top down. Its great.

i have the spun pearl knob and it gets really hot when left in the sun for few hours. almost the same with stock. but with the voodoo knob, the shifts feel shorter and more precise.

This pic shows the highly polished Ti Voodoo, with the shift pattern laser engraved on it (and the S2000 logo further down):

Nice laser job on the gear knob pattern, though I don't really need it myself.

I have the pearl Al knob, and the clearcoat really helps to insultate it against getting hot compared to the stock knob. Shift throws are quite a bit shorter as well. Can't beat it in terms of bang for the buck.
