Two problems with that method:
1) It isn't really fully countersunk. It will be further "screwed on" then with the lock nut, but the threads in the OEM knob do not go all the way to the top of the knob.
2) You can't get the shift pattern to line up correctly without the lock nut (well i can't anyways, i tried).
Anyone else have any other methods?
