RPI Designs C7 Corvette Billiard Style Shifter *****, many styles & colors available!
RPI Designs has recently just purchased Nakid Parts Billard Style Shifter **** product line and we are now manufacturing these C7 Corvette Billard Style Shifter ***** in house. We wanted to make sure these products live up to the reputation of the original Nakid Parts so Josh and Tim from RPI Designs went out to Nakid Parts and were taught the ways of making these parts. We wanted to make sure the quality and the tradition will carry on and now they are available from RPI Designs!!!
As you will see there are many styles and colors available below so Dress-Up your C7 Corvette with one of our great looking shift *****!
This "Retro style **** is the style that never gets old" is a direct fit for your stock or aftermarket shifter.
These Shifter ***** fit both Stingray and Z06 Model Corvettes, please make correct selection when purchasing
This 2.25" diameter shift **** fits on the OEM shifter and retains the OEM mount and chrome boot lip. As many know the OEM shifter has a unique mount (no threads, a slot on top and a screw to secure it). Universal or threaded ***** just don’t work here. That is why we have a custom CNC billet adapter for correct, quick and easy installation. Once installed your shifter will not move ,rattle or twist. This adapter is exclusive to our shift *****. The shifter is a solid inlaid material so the color will never wear or fade. This unique material will never get too hot or cold to touch.

In addition to shortening the shift by ~12% since it sits lower on the shift lever, I find the larger size helps with the 1st to 2nd shift and most important to the 4th or 5th to 7th shift that I often use on the Interstate. On an on-ramp I accelerate to 70 mph in 4th and shift to 7th. If passing an 18 wheeler quickly (hate driving next to one as have already had one toss a rock that hit my windshield) I downshift from 7th to 4th, the springs are set to assist that shift by simply pulling back on the shift lever. Then back directly to 7th. The larger round **** makes it easier. FWIW

Would love to see these with just shift pattern and no logo.

I'm sure this is an incredibly silly question, but how does one remove the OEM shift ****? I looked and don't see a set screw, but I didn't try forcing the leather boot all the way down.

Thank you for asking, The Grand Sport would take the same **** as a Stingray car because it has the same drive train as a Stingray. At the moment there is no carbon fiber ***** available. Thanks, Don

Well the shift **** is the same. You can read the words, pull up on the ring, turn CCW then push down. Sounds easy! Was not!
Checking the Forum, one poster said he was ready to use C4 explosive after spending 1/2 hour trying. Then he said, "You'll see why it's a trick when you take if off!" BIG HELP! Left me with a Catch 22! (Link to PDF with 15 pics on my install below and a pic below showing the issue with the chrome ring removal. In fairness to that forum poster who said "you'll see it when it's removed," the picture is worth 1000 words!)
After feeling the same I watched a YouTube video and saw it had to be turned 90 degrees! I was not able to get more than ~10! Put a rag on the ring and used a pair of small Channellock pliers! Finally with quite a bit of force it turned! From there it's easy!
Should have sanded the pins before installing but didn't. Had to use the pliers again to get it back on! Went back and has been in place for 2+ years! Here is a PDF that shows how it's attached without having to first take it off to find out! Apparently some car clearances on the plastic parts are tighter than others.

To Remove Chrome Ring Must Pull Up, Rotate 10/15 Deg CCW Past Ridge, Then Push Down. My Pin (and others) Required Force To Clear Ridge

My **** broke completely lose from its shaft two days after I installed it. Easy fix though, I just applied a generous amount of Elmer's super strength glue and all was well the next day.

In fact a forum poster suggested being sure the car/shifter was warm when taking the set screw out. That was to help loosen the Loctite that is on the OEM screw. I was prepared to use the tip of a soldering iron to heat the screw if needed. If RED Loctite is used, heat is required for removal. As I recall it was only BLUE Loctite so just extra force should work. I followed the advice and started with a warm shift lever and extra heat was not needed, but you do need a quality Torx wrench.
All covered in my PDF, post #13.

It wasn't the set screw that came loose on mine, it was the **** completely coming apart from the shaft. It was like they didn't apply enough glue on the shaft when assembled. I simply applied a generous amount of glue on the shaft and inside the **** and let it set up overnight. All is good now but it was definitely a manufacturing defect.
