DEWHEL Shift KNOB Boot Retainer/Adapter for Manual Gear Shifter Lever 12X1.25 (Neo Chrome)

My original knob shifter deteriorated in the FL heat, got a glow-in-the-dark knob a couple years ago but always hated the exposed threads beneath it and the skinny shift stick showing.Randomly came across this adapter while looking for other car accessories and it fits exactly as I’d hoped!There was a slight gap between the top of the adapter and the knob, but I just drilled into the knob with a carbide burr and smoothed it out with a spherical rotary bit. If you have a similar knob off Amazon, you may have to alter it slightly to deepen the original hole, but it’s a simple fix.Now the knob sits flush with the adapter, and the threading fits tight. No more loose, wiggly shifting!Very pleased with this one 🚗 💨

I changed my Tacoma’s shift knob to this TRD knob from the FJ but the shaft would be exposed and wasn’t the cleanest look.This was exactly what I wanted and very easy to install. Makes this look OEM and feels great!

The only problem I had which really wasn’t a problem was the wrong thread size. The one I bought was too big and didn’t twist on my shift thread. But due to my 2012 Mazda 3 sedan 2.5l shifter has a curve towards the bottom the adapter stopped at an acceptable spot.If your shifter is straight down you will want to get the correct thread size to screw on.

Very tight fit on my 2002 Subaru WRX. Was not cross-threaded and still took slip-joint pliers (cover the jaws with duct tape to protect the finish) and lubricant to get in place. Works fine otherwise.

I bought a Dewhel shift knob for my 2014 Mustang GT and needed a boot retainer to clean up the look. This was exactly what was needed. It also can be used to align your shift knob to face right the right direction since both are threaded and butt against each other.

Had to make some modifications with my belt sander to taper and take down the lip , my shift boot would not fit up over the lip, shift boot opening is about 20mm and the lip is 25mm +Might be easier to spend an extra 5-10 bucks on a brand name retainer if you dont have tools or time to make it workId say overall for $10 it was a good product just keep in mind that you may have to make modifications to fit

Bought for 2007 Ford Mustang GT fits perfect looks good lightweight good value for money Quality is good

I think the most important thing to know about this piece is that the hole that goes onto the shifter is 5/8" (16mm) wide. Amazon said it would fit my car but it definitely does not. I would have known had there been any sort of indication as to the size of said hole.
