Where are these for sale, please? I am thinking a wooden knob would complement the tan interior quite well if on the right tone of wood.These are for the Evora, but it looks like the same shift lever that's on the Emira. Would Evora gear knobs fit?

I have a similar one on my FRS that I’m planning to swap over. It clears the stock plastic reverse lockout just fine. I didn’t want to buy their lockout as it’s metal and defeats the purpose of getting rid of the metal shift knob.Thanks for the info, I'm afraid of it sitting high.
This is the one I like: https://raceseng.com/products/nitro-m12x1-5mm-adapter-6-speed-reverse-left-up?variant=39762367086694
But if the knob can't be installed without the collar that it comes with it looks like it'll sit too high as well.

Hi Slotus,I have a similar one on my FRS that I’m planning to swap over. It clears the stock plastic reverse lockout just fine. I didn’t want to buy their lockout as it’s metal and defeats the purpose of getting rid of the metal shift knob.
I don't know if these are still available anywhere. I found them when looking for wooden shift knobs for an Evora, but haven't found them for sale anywhere.Where are these for sale, please? I am thinking a wooden knob would complement the tan interior quite well if on the right tone of wood.
I haven’t received my car yet, but the adapter doesn’t add much height unless you want it to (it’s adjustable) maybe half an inch at the lowest setting.Hi Slotus,
Were you able to install your raceseng shift knob? I'd like to also install one of their shift knobs as I'm a fan of their products, but I'm curious if the additional adapter that their knobs require increases significantly the height over the OEM knob. Can you let me know?
Thanks
Slightly off topic, has anyone found a way to smooth the engraving without marring the finish?
Looks great! What adapter did you use?H Folks, an update on my shift knob swap:
I finally received my Raceseng shift knob and I'm really happy with how it turned out. I was very unhappy with the overly small size of the OEM knob, its looks and the engraved numbers' rough edges as well as the rear hole for the set screw. I chose Raceseng Slammer model in black as I thought the Brush's finish would not match well with the more dull silver of the lower reverse pull lever.
I purchased Raceseng products in the past and currently have their knobs on 2 other cars of mine and I'm a longterm fan. Their product quality, feel and looks are second to none..
The Slammer is a weighted knob, it fits and works perfectly with the reverse lever and surprisingly, the height, with the adapter comes out basically the same as the OEM knob height. In my opinion, it represents a huge improvement.
Here are some pics...
It’s the Raceseng own adapter . See belowLooks great! What adapter did you use?

Feels much nicer too doesn't it? You can tell the difference in the ease of shifting with that weighted knob. Loving mine as well. Congrats.Great set up.. I am waiting for contour version to try it out as well.. View attachment 49148View attachment 49149View attachment 49150
Thank you for sharing. I really like this setup except I wish the boot collar was also in black so the all 3 pieces looked more cohesive.I received my Raceseng shift knob today. Didn’t realize they were just a bit north of me in PA so I got the package very quickly. All I have to say is it is such a nice piece of craftsmanship. I went with the Nitro model. It has a delrin cover that is textured and heat resistant. I haven’t driven it yet as I’m waiting for the loctite to set up but just shifting through the gears in the garage it feels really good. Looks good too. View attachment 49368View attachment 49369
