Default What are some quality aftermarket M7 shiftknobs?

Hey everybody. Recently bought a 2014 stingray, and the shift **** is worn really badly. What do you guys recommend for a nice aftermarket replacement?

I had mine custom made from EPCO.

The quality is great & I really like it. It lowers the overall shifter height by about 1/2 inch, which greatly improves the feel.

If you like OEM...you may find a good deal in the for sale section from those that went aftermarket.

I have ordered (it will take about four weeks) a carbon fiber shift **** from West Coast Corvettes for my '14 7MT, 1 LT, Z51 Conv.. Not cheap but other places wanted/demanded my stock black leather **** which I would like to keep. Looking forward to it!

I added a Hurst T handle to my MGW install in my 2014 Stingray.

To the OP. As mentioned here, check out this brand. Have these in all my cars for years now. Usually, one of the first mods I make. They are pricey but their selection and quality, in my opinion, is unmatched! YMMV...

Can you provide a photo of your shift **** showing it installed with the adapter?

Thanks! I realized that I posted to your thread with comments regarding the boot removal.

Am I correct in assuming that (when installing the Race Eng ****) the boot has to be held up using a zip tie?

I hate Vette OEMs and always replace them immediately. I fab black Belgium cue ***** into ***** for all my cars (Vettes and otherwise) and for many of my friends. However, I found an identical replacement here with the goofy C7 mount already in place. Great, I thought! However, I cannot recommend the vendor because they were a hassle to deal with, selling a slew of faulty ***** to many, including me. Though, I finally got a good one after having to "buy" another first in the process.

Thanks for all the suggestions everybody. I might try to find a bargain on a decent OEM one or wait a bit to get one that was suggested.

MGW shifter with the Race **** was the best thing that I did to my car. Sublime feel.

They supply a zip tie that holds the boot in place to the base of their threaded adapter. It works well. Never moves or drops as long as I've had Raceseng *****.
