i was just browsin' through some pictures and came across this veilside shiftknob, just wonderin' if anyone has first hand experience with the comfort... and does anywhere know where i can get it besides the veilside website?

 

Just my opinion but this looks terrible. Fair enough it personalises your car but it looks as though very little effort has gone into this design.
More importantly, (for some) it looks like it is even higher than the stock shift knob(which imho looks far nicer).
Check out Muz's counter sunk shift knob. Feels great, looks great and is very well priced.
If you're not aware of his web-site he's on the sponsor list and you could get reviews from a search.
