    Has anyone replaced it with anything?
    For ex: You like a knob in a 6gear car but yours is a 5gear!
    Post up your ideas, thoughts, and pics please!

    I thought I read some where you can actually take the knob apart and cover the 6th gear I'll see if I can dig it up. Also I have no idea how difficult this would be or if you'd be willing to pull apart an expensive oem knob.

    Hear is a link that shows you how to illuminate the shift knob but once it's apart I don't see why you couldent pai t over the 6th gear.

    Ryan! The sticker isn't that hard to pop off.

    I don't think it would be a problem to cover up whatever you don't want
