I just installed my Spun Aluminum Voodoo Magnum shift knob, and what a difference! Nice, crisp, short shifts, great feel, and it matches my interior perfectly. It's a huge improvement over the factory knob, and even the Honda aftermarket titanium knob that I've been using for the past few weeks (and is now going on Ebay).

Anyway, I had to share my excitement with people who understand.

I, too, just put on the Voodoo Magnum Ti. Same sentiment. In hindsight the spun aluminum would have matched the stereo cover better but it's still awesome.
I was very surprised how heavy the stock knob is, heavier than the VooDoo even.

Im sorry but I have to ask...

How can a shit KNOB make a noticeable difference equating to 'nice, crisp, short shifts' ?

I mean, it is only the knob, it does nothing to the shift linkage or throws. Am I missing something here?

The Voodoo sits lower on the shift lever than the stock knob resulting in a much different feel. It's well worth the $28, and it's something I'll use on a daily basis.

I had the exact same question before I ordered mine. If you do a search on knobs every one loves the thing and I was delighted the moment I put it on


One of the best things you can do for your greater enjoyment of the car (besides pushing the red button )

I only wish there were a few more options (colors and such) and then I could get a few and change every so often

Hit the start button (upper left) and then Photo Album. Do Brouse and go to the location of you pics. Import the pics into your Photo Album. then, when you post, just click on INSERT PHOTOS FROM YOUR PHOTO ALBUM and indicate which one(s) you want to post. voila!
