🚗 MOMO Short Shift Knob with Anatomic Design Review

Leather feels good in the hand. Although I couldn't screw on the bottom piece (lower black metal half), it fit well. I prefer this to the Sparco all aluminum gear knob I had.

Installed 4 months ago on a 2010 Mercedes C-Series manual transmission sedan and looks great. Feels and looks better than the OEM plastic grip. In addition, its length is shorter, which reduces the throw. Buy it.

I was very impressed with the packaging and design. It was very ergonomic and went well with the rest of my leather interior, but it wasn't as durable as I thought as the leather started to peel off after some time of handling. For the price I expected a little more.

Arrived quickly, looks and feels good. The shift knob feels good in the hand and is the perfect size. Unfortunately I had problems installing it on my car (SubaruWRX 2002) despite all the adapters provided, when all the adapters are removed the shift knob does not fit the end of the shift rod.

I took a risk as there was little data from other 997 owners. The shifter on the 997 is way too big for this shifter. To get it right you would have to "modify" the metal shifter significantly (i.e. cut/grind to size) which I didn't want to do. Also, the shape of my shifter looks more like a rectangular bar than a round shaft. There are a couple of rubber boot adapters that would help with this if they were a bit smaller, but unless your shifter is cylindrical I'm not sure how well it will fit.
