I think you should re-evaluate not wanting a counter-sunk shift knob. I bought a Rick's Magnum (all black) Knob and it was one of my favorite mods on the car.

As mentioned, Modifry's Glovebox Organizer is an excellent addition also and just makes the car more comfortable.

Those are the only suggestions I have, or a TestPipe.
Is Modifry's Glovebox organizer that of a big deal? Doesn't it just divide the space so it's more neat..? Or we are talking about totally 2 different things.. any pics?

That's all it does, divide up the space.

It doesn't seem like a big deal, but all of a sudden having a place to put everything without making a huge mess everytime you want your wallet, a pack of gum, or whatever is at the bottom makes a world of a different.

In the same way that a simple shift knob might SEEM like it wouldn't make much of a different, both the knob and the organizer are two of my favorite purchases for my car. (especially in that price range).

Yeah I would agree with the shift beeper. Never used one, but I'm sure with some really aggressive driving would be nice to have. Especially since over revving in these cars has just devastating effects on the engine.
The shift beeper has its uses, but saving your car from overrevving is not one of them, since the shift beeper will not save you from a mechanical overrev anyway. The engine is protected from overrevving a single gear by the rev limiter/fuel cutoff.

This item is way less than $100 and I do not know if you have it yet or not. I have found it very useful and it has made grabing things while driving a lot quicker and it simply makes more efficient use of the storage area between the seats. Nt only that, but you will have $80 left over for something(s) else. Just a suggestion.

I know it won't prevent it, but just in case you aren't paying attention when revving high and rev up too high before shifting. Don't think I would ever do that, but could be nice just in case you really gun it without noticing how high in rpm's you are. I am aware it won't prevent anything if you miss shift or anything of that sort.

Rev up too high before upshifting? No such thing.

Just kidding. I hear people who have them really like them.

I'd consider one if you could adjust the beep to something else... like a .wav file... that'd be funny!

I've considered every possible shiftknob and I think in the end I will stick with the ti one ><, unless I manage to sell the OEM ti one for decent price

Yes guys, the Modifry Shift Beeper does many neat things, but it simply cannot prevent a mechanical over rev. Still, it's one of the best mods I've made to the car, right up there with the CTSC/AC and RPSS (and at a much lower cost). Anyone who thinks they're too profecent to benefit from this little gadget is just fooling themself. Even if the only thing you ever used was the valet function it would justify the cost and effort to install.
