For those that were asking about the wood shift knob from the dealer, my first attempt at posting a pic should be in the pic poster, under "wood shift knob". It was pretty expensive, about $80 from the dealer (maybe less from Clair) and matches the pre-98.5 "atmospheres" 2.8 wood trim exactly. It has the same finish and feel as the dash trim, and I really like it actually. Doesn't get slippery as I'd feared..actually seems to provide a better grip (just don't go eatin' a big mac 'n fries while shiftin'), and it's not freezing cold in the winter like the aluminum knobs I looked at.<p>It's a huge file for a small pic--sorry, I won't have photoshop until next week and am quite new at this.<br>I hope you will be able to view it with a graphics application--I used Freehand on a Mac to open it successfully. Hope it works, otherwise e-mail me and I'll (attempt to) send it as an attachment.<p>Rich<br>'98 2.8Q sport

When you upload a photo for use on the internet, it needs to be either a JPEG or GIF file and it also it needs to have a 3 letter extention,( ie: .jpg, .gif) Also, spaces in a name are kind of bad. I'm assuming that you uploaded this from a Mac? Mac's don't automatically add an extention, so you will have to do it manually.<p>Matt Daniels
Hope this works--this is a first for me!<br>If the link doesn't work, it's in the picture poster.<br>Sorry for the sideways orientation, but hopefully it'll show you the color.<p>Rich<br>'98 2.8Q sport

Could you please give us the part # if you have it.<p>Thanks.<br>
Jason,<p>Sorry, didn't get the part number--they just had it sitting there in the display case, calling my name.<br>Any dealer should be able to get it for you, but I'd try Clair first though, probably cheaper..<p>Happy shiftin'<p>Rich<br>'98 2.8Q sport<br>

It is a great knob, anotomic and fits perfectly! I do have the post 98.5 wood so it doesn't go with the wood as well as it would in a pre 98.5. Defenately worth the 68 bucks, I don't think you could find a better fiting aftermarket one w/o swaping out the whole boot.
