I hope this helps, I'll let you know when we have more developments.

Sorry this review took so long...work sucks!

Anyways, this is my review of the TWM M1 shift knob.

As you can see the TWM knob and hardware/tools comes in great packaging. I thought the packing was almost excessive, but I certainly apprciated it!


When you open the box everything is vacuum sealed and perfect! They even include some decals as well. You can see inside bag on the left: threat height adjuster, thread adapter, and the threading tool.


This is what the knob looks like with the threading insert. I'm not sure if you're supposed to put the insert on the shift linkage first, but this is how I did mine.



This is what it looks like installed!


Overall, I am very satisfied with the customer support and product from TWM. The shift knob is very heavy and fits perfectly in my palm. I realized it's so heavy that I end up depending on its weight to get me into gear--which is bad, but this is my own bad shifting habit. I think this knob would feel absolutely amazing coupled with stiffer bushings and a short shifter.

Great work TWM!

Hi,

I'm glad to hear you enjoyed our shift knobs in the past. We have been toying with the idea of offering a Type R style that is reverse lock compatible. We may run some off during our next production run

Thanks,

Kevin

Hi Guys,

I am very pleased to announce that we have finished the engraving testing and the finished product looks amazing! Check out these pics:





We just started a group buy as well, quantities are limited though. Here's the link to the group buy: http://www.iwsti.com/forums/vendor-g...ift-knobs.html

I'll have more pics later this week or early next week of the satin version. The Gun Metal and flat black will be ready in about 2-3 weeks.

Let me know what you think

Kevin
