I installed an FD2 gear knob off a CTR today. Brushed gear knob and red lettering
I installed it without the locking nut. Its quite a bit smaller and sits just over 1/2 inch lower. I find shifting is better and fits more snug in my hand, from time to time i would miss gears with the stock gear knob.
For 30 odd quid i cant complain.

I have that knob. A friend got it off of the interior deals here on s2ki. I love the knob. It sits a little lower than the stock teardrop knob. I saw where niptek said its lighter than stock but i dont remember if it was or not. Id recommend this knob.

i just installed it a few days ago and im loving it. it is lighter than the stock knob. it also sits lower. I didnt use the locking nut. I just wrap thread seal tape and tighten with it.

This was one of the first things I picked up for my car. Its essentially the CR knob with red lettering instead of yellow. I've got the lock nut on mine because I didn't want to lock tight the threads. Still sits lower than the stock knob.
