Okay,

So I want the Momo "Air Leather Race Knob" for my interior.

I already have a Momo Millenium Wheel with a Carbon Fiber Style Dash.

My question is:

HOW LARGE IS IT?

I want a Nice large shift knob that feels big and heavy. I actually got another brand one that I liked, but when it arrived it looked Soooo Tiny.

Any ideas? I checked Momo's site but they don't list sizes, dimensions, or weights.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks, that would help. I don't remember how large or heavy the third gen shifter is.

I have a First Gen, with a TII Tranny.

Perhaps the one with the checkbook can help you little better with scale

Thanks.

Nice Interior. Do you Like it? Feels Good in the hand?
I want it to be nice and thick.

Yeah I like it a lot. A little large for my size hand, but the airleather has a nice feel. Nearly matches perfect with the perforated grip on the wheel and psgr handle. The aluminum button on the top can get damn hot when the car is parked, I swear I have a Momo emblem branded in my hand. Installed it was a few mm shorter than the stock one.

Thank you SOOOOO Much. Especially for going out of your way to take and post pics of your installed.
You are a gentleman and a scholar. - And you have a Nice Ride.

Thanks.

And who says Third Gen Guys are crybabies?

    Actually, it's the 2nd Gen guys that are childish...?

      In my humble opinion, all of the universal knobs with the alan screws suck donkey balls.

      I was sick of having the thing come off at the worst times, so I purchased a screw-on Mazdaspeed carbon fiber knob from the fine gentlemen at Rotary Performance. The rx7store also sells them.

      The knob kicks ass--looks sweet, and is leads to firm and sure shifts.

      The problem with the Momo knobs is that they are much lighter than stock. They don't have the heft of the stock knob. Although my Momo shift knob looks better, I went back to stock because it feels better.

      Well, you're the subject matter expert....please, tell us more ;)

      You might want to check out the mazdaspeed knobs too. It would match perfectly with your cf dash kit. Also, it looks as though it would be a lot heavier than stock, but I can't say for sure.
