Sweet Shifters...
 
Alright, well like 5 months ago I wanted a new shift knob and I picked up a mini coors light tap handle. It was about 7 inches long and a little thicker than a thumb. It was some sweet ----.... unfortunately it broke in about 4 days because it was wood...

I'm wondering if you guys either had any other entertaining ideas for shifters or knew of any plastic tap handles?

Thanks

saw someone take the rod out of a shorty screwdriver and drill a hole through it and use that. kind of a neat idea.

if i wanted to do a tap handle again I could probably just drill all the way down the hole and reinforce it with a metal rod.. that might work.

If you are catholic, I'd recommend an ornamental Virgin Mary. but seriously, I like the screwdriver idea.

I ordered handles to do that (replacement handles are like $5 each). I even went for the baller soft grips, then I saw that car at formula D and decided against it.

Re: Sweet Shifters...
 
if you have handles just sitting around i'll buy them off you

ruined one trying to make something out of it, and traded the other one in when I bought my flex-head ratcheting wrenches.

A close second is a massive dildo.
