Looking for Leather Shift Knob

[viperos]

anyone know where I can find a (preferably new) Black Leather Shift Knob for my 95 GT? (I think the one I like actually comes standard on the Cobra 96+)(I'd prefer not to have to pay $50 for it either...)

-btw, what is the tread dimensions, if anyone here knows...? thnx guys.

$30

 

[viperos]

not too bad... $30 shipped would be better though... anyone seen them cheaper anywhere??

EBAY, there are a ton on there, i just bought one myself for 15 bucks

 

[viperos]

the only ones I saw on ebay were either not what I wanted, or $25 was for the cheapest one, and it was all scuffed up and really used... oh well, maybe I will just need to keep my eyes open...

 

[cb18201]

yea they do come standard on the cobras from 94 up and maybe 93 i think, heres one i found:

thnx, but "page cannot be found".... I'm getting that a lot lately! maybe it's my computer...

-I did a search for the part number though, not too bad... I think I will bid on it then... thnx guys...

-anyone know if junk yards ever have this stuff... I imagine they would go really fast, and kinda pricy on stuff like this... I'm also looking for some 95 Cobra Headlight lenses... if anyone here has seen some cheap

in connecticut where i live there is an all mustang junk yard (recycling yard) called connecticut mustang, they have pretty much every mustang part you could imagine, its a huge warehouse filled with crashed mustangs and shelves upon shelves filled with parts. its a nice place

 

[viperos]

well shoot, I live in Washington, not CT I'm sorry to say... I think they might have something like that here in Woodenville... but I don't feel like driving to a slum an hour 40 min away, then have some guy try to sell me stuff I don't want for way too much money... (get the idea I like my rich little neighborhood?)

kind of sounds like the place here lol, its in a slum an some of the guys try to sell you things for more than there worth.

 

[viperos]

oh well, I guess I will brave the drive, and the people... I really want that stuff, and don't want to have to pay a ton... I will just pile some dirt and mud on them, to make them look crappier than they really are

Boo Hoo!

You stang guys are lucky....GM leather shift knobs can be
more than 200 dollars!

Just my .02

 

[GTPhreak]

i guess i was lucky...my gt had the leather cobra knob in it already

the thread on the stock handle is m12x1.75

My friend gave me a leather knob he bought off ebay for like $2, it came out of a newer car, I think it was a new cobra (but I'm not sure) and looks brand new. It feels soooo nice after using that crappy plastic stock one, it fills my hand better which makes it 10x more comfortable. I looks waaay better too. I would happily spend $30-40 on it otherwise.

 

[viperos]

hey zero, I'm happy for you, no really, I am...

-wanna post some pics? I'm not sure if the newer cobra's are the same as the sn-95s or not, but still, post some pics...

Hey Viperos you realize that the Mustang Ranch (no, not the whore house) is only 30-40 minutes away from you right? And if you call ahead of time, they will tell you exactly what they have on hand. I've gotten several parts from them and never had a problem.
