how long is the shifter stalk under the stock knob...? i want to get an aftermarket knob, but do not want the ting sitting way up high on the stalk...?

is it a fairly short stalk...? it's not as tall as the stock shift handle is it...?

This may give you an idea. Click here ('http://users.bestweb.net/~beaner/shift_install.html').

Basically, the top of the post (the point of the triangular piece) ends at the top of the shifter button. The button presses against the slope of the triangular piece, causing the post to press down.

i ended up taking the knob off last night...

I ordered the MOMO knob, as i saw someone with an Eclipse auto had one on theirs... it looked real nice, so hopefully it will look that nice on the Galant shifter...

yeah, well i got in my car this afternoon, and what the hell...? there was a spring laying on the floormat...? haha... last night when i unscrewed the stock knob and pulled up the button kinda flew out of the knob and landed on the floormat...

i put everthing back together last night, without the spring... everything worked no problem...:roll: i re-installed the spring this afternoon though... better safe than sorry...

Hey Tiller, I think that knob would look good if you also added a shift boot......

i'm not sure about the guys with the pre 02's... but it will work on the 02 as there is no OD button... it's simply a matter of tightening it to the shaft, and voila... you got a new, cool looking shift knob... :thumbsup:

so you got it already? the reason i ask is just because i've mostly seen it for honda/acura and vw and yea if you didn't know already the pattern for the screws on the shaft are different compared to the nissan/toyota/mitsu...
