Review on MOMO AUTOBK1 Black Automatic Shift Knob for Optimal SEO by Ameer Kobblewood

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works great, looks cool!

I installed this shift knob on my 2004 Infiniti G35 5AT. The instructions leave a lot to be desired, but I think that's understandable given that this shifter is meant to be versatile. Here's what I did, maybe it helps someone else: 1. Remove the existing shift knob (it should be fairly visible there)2. Remove the shifter extension - this helps lower the derailleur, which I think looks cooler, but YMMV3. Unscrew the bottom silver cap from the Momo and slide it onto the stem until it stops - at this height, pressing the button should activate the shifting mechanism4. Mark this height on the shift rod5. Cut off the top of the rubber gasket that best fits the shift rod6. Insert the gasket about half way into the shift knob (this is important as the gasket is very easy to get stuck in the shift knob and then very difficult to remove)7. Place the lower silver cover on the shift rod8. Lower the grip/pad to the mark on the shift rod9. Slide the knob over the gasket until it is flush with the mark on the pin 10. Install the provided screws and screw on the silver bottom cover. In my case, only two screws are properly tightened, but they are very tight, so I'm not worried.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Long delivery time
