"Pro-Tip: When installing, make sure to clean the shifter threads thoroughly. Use a tiny drop of blue threadlocker on the adapter to ensure zero-play during high-RPM pulls. This ensures your fitment stays tight even when you're pushing the redline."

Does this fit my Honda Civic?
Absolutely. Most Honda manual transmissions use the 10mm x 1.5 adapter included in this kit, giving you that sick tsurikawa-level style in your cockpit.
Will the carbon fiber yellow over time?
This knob is finished with a high-grade UV-resistant clear coat, ensuring your carbon weave stays looking clean and deep for the long haul.
Is it weighted?
While carbon fiber is lightweight, the core of this knob is designed to provide a balanced, weighted feel to assist with smoother gear transitions during spiritied dori sessions.
