Hi Steve.<p>I saw your car on the Nordic Audi site and noticed you have a Momo Anatomico Zebrano wood shift knob. How do you like it (size, etc.)? Which atmosphere do you think it goes best with?<p>Any input would be greatly appreciated.<p>TGB 1999 1.8T qMS (on boat...)

The Momo now (because it is the short one) fits pretty good...if you have ever gotten a Momo before, they occasionally require tightening with the allen wrenches. It matches the glossy older wood interior very well. It does not match the newer non-polished wood. I got it at Autobahn International for about $55-60. I just wanted to change the interior a little bit. The other option is the one Clair Parts Express is now selling...it is wood also...however, I have not seen it and don't know how well it matches. Do not get any of the tall shift knobs...they are too big to fit well in the A4.<p>Hope I helped.<p>Steve S.<br>97 2.8QM<p>P.S. Are you jealous that Jonas Karlsson got to drive a new S4...I am.<br>

Thanks a lot Steve.<p>I have the opal interior and am interested in replacing the aluminum with the factory wood (once the $ become available). Since I want to buy the shift knob first, I am looking for something that will match well.<p>I have sent an email to Clair for a better description of which atmosphere their's matches best and possibly a picture if they have one. I have not heard anything yet.<p>Once again, thanks for your input.<p>S4? I think I would step over my mother to get into one of those, even if it was only for a test drive. :)<p>TGB 1999 1.8T qMS<p>P.S. I really like the way those rims look on your car. Very nice contrast!<p>

Regarding fit, I have two questions. Are the MOMO knobs threaded, or are the allen bolts required for mounting (or just for adjustment)?<br>When you recommend the short knob, is it because of aesthetics, or does the long knob not fit in some way?<br>I am actually considering the same knob.<p>Keith 99 A4 2.8 (On the boat)

The short Zebrano knob does not interfere with the interaction of<br>driving and the climate control system. Taller knobs will interfere.<br>The wood matches...not exactly...but very very close. Others wouldn't<br>notice, but I do...I seem to notice everything. It is three allen head<br>screws...there are no threads on the inside of the Momo knob itself.<p>Steve S.<br>97 2.8QM
