Subject: Momo shift knob - guilty pleasure

OK, at the risk of sounding rediculous, yeah, I did this...  No, I'm no
teen-age speed racer type.  But yesterday when I visited my local vanagon
parts joint they had these things.  Not sure what came over me.

I have to confess though that this has been one of the best things I've done
to the van.  Nothing like the feel of leather...

Here's a link to the thing (again, no business incentives on my part).

Installation tips:  I had to trim off a bit of the plastic skin that covers
the shifter shaft so that the knob would slide all the way down.  The
instructions came in 15 languages, so there's no excuses.  It adds no
overall length even though the thing looks long.

Peace,
