You can still get the GReddy one on eBay or YJA, but very expensive.
The 5-Spd RX-8 **** is hard to find as they are not available in the US, I imported a batch few years back and they were sold out very quickly. I do have 1 left, been sitting on my desk for years, it has some chrome peeling so I never bother to list it, hit me up if you are interested.
FYI there's a guy that sells a chrome cover on Ebay for the RX-8 shift *****. It just glues on. I've installed it on my RX-8 and on a friend's car and it's fantastic - perfect fit and has held up with no problems. Best part is I think it's like $8 or something VERY reasonable.

I tried to find this but couldn’t. Do you have a link? Also thank you for the heads up on the all metal shift **** issues. It gets hot here so I’ll avoid the Greddy.

I did the same with my RX-8 shift **** as it had a big dent in it when I bought it. Looks perfect now. Recommend using a different type of glue though, as I find super glue hard to clean off if it gets on anything.

Of course the North American version of the RX8 **** is a six speed. Looks essentially the same. Looks like you could just blot out he "6" somehow and you would have a 5 speed ****. Considering asking price on ebay for the five speed is C$350........
They are very nicely weighted *****.. I picked one up (6 speed) from the local wrecker for C$25. Think I will go back for more.
Now if you find a lighted version of the 5 speed, you'd be golden.
I bought a CF mazda speed **** of ebay a few weeks back. Unfortunately the CF sorrounding the alloy handle was loose and it buzzed badly when driving. The CF warms up nicely to the touch. In any event I was able to return it.

that’s unfortunate. I hate dealing with returns so will avoid that. Thanks for sharing

thanks also is it the lightened version for the one you have for sale?
Jatt The first one could be Greddy or even Top Secret. My buddy has the Top Secret long style on his MR-S. I'm not sure who actually makes those shift ***** but it seems like a lot of different companies use that design and rebrand them as their own by changing the coin with the shift pattern on it.
Top one is a Trust/Greddy Grex ****. They're selling for like $300 on eBay now a days.
I made a copy of it out of Delrin, so I didn't have to deal with a hot shift **** in the summer. I think I still have extras if you're interested in a cheaper option :p
I got my like-new unlit 6 speed RX-8 **** off of the 8 club for like 30 bucks. I don't know how bad you want a lit shiftknob or how much the 5 or 6 speed pattern messes with your head, but you can get an OEM RX-8 one for pretty cheap.
You got lucky. At this point finding used shift ***** that are in good shape can be tricky - actually, finding a lot of used RX-8 parts is getting harder as they are all just having their cats removed and crushed.
They are available new but they are pricey, like $250 or so. The ones that show the 5-speed shift patterns are hard to find, don't know if they are available new, and the 5-speed illuminated ones are impossible.
Few years back you can get the 6-Spd version in like new condition fairly easy, I actually ran them on my MX-6s for years and a short period on the 7.

The extra one I have is just the regular unlighted version, but it is 5-Spd. I’ll get you a picture when I get home tonight, it has a little chrome peeling and little wear on the top edge of the leather.

Some guy on IG made a rosewood Miata style shift **** for his FD. I like it but doesn’t fit the FD imo

The non illuminated 5 speed version is available elsewhere, but at $100 a pop, some can't justify the price for a ****. I bet Ramy could get a hold of some of these for a more attractive price.
From the info I have these ***** have the same thread pattern as s5 and s6.
Pics from Brody8877, posted in a different thread.
I'd be interested in an illuminated **** for my FD and maybe a second one or a non illuminated **** for my FC depending on prices.
Looks amazing! I am sure there are some DIY methods to do this
