🚗 PILOT Motorsport Nickel with Black Leather Manual Shift Knob PM-120E Review

I got it as an alternative to the expensive Momo version. Works well, build quality is ok, what you would expect for the price. As another reviewer mentioned, unless the plastic sleeve that the knob screws into is cut, it may not fit low enough on the stem. Also, I don't think the black part is actually leather, more like vinyl or something. I think it actually says "leather style" on the box, but I can't remember exactly and threw it away.

After installation it kept making that rattling noise but was well protected from the shift rod. On the second day I noticed that two polished screws that make up the top decoration were missing. I was able to find one and put it back in, but now there's another screw missing in a hole at the top. The rattling was due to most of the screws on the top being loose and you can't use the same wrench that comes with the kit. i get something else

I ordered this shift knob for my 5 speed escort along with a set of APC pedals. Overall this is a decent all round kit for the money but I'll give you my take on why it could be better. The pen is nice but the quality is questionable. My biggest concern is the 1 inch gap between the grip and my shifter boot, which I was hoping to avoid. I guess now I need to cut an inch off my lever or find a set of boots big enough but in the end I really wouldn't recommend it if you're a driving enthusiast…
