Koolknobs | How To Order

Once we start communicating, use your REPLY button so I can keep a record of what we're doing without havng to go back through all our work to figure out the project.
I need to know the make, year, and model of your vehicle. Some require special adapters, and there are a few cars and trucks for which I have no adapters available.
It'll take a few minutes, but please wade through the information below so you can gather as many details as possible. Once you have a few ideas, I'll look forward to hearing from you.

Include some information about your car and project:

COLORS: I have some stock colors like red, black, white, blue, silver and some others. You can get two colors swirled together like you've seen on the samples pages, no extra charge for that. I can also use a small liquid sample of your paint to do a perfect paint match to your car. You'll send me the sample and I'll use it as the dye for the project. I have quite a few automotive colors in stock, so if you have something in mind, please ask.
YOUR VEHICLE: I need to know the year, make and model of your vehicle. This helps me ensure that your knob will fit your car when you get it. I haven't figured out a good adapter for newer VW, Porsche, or Audi vehicles.
THREADS and LEVERS: Some cars don't have threaded levers, like column shifts and some floor shifts. I make adapters for many cars and trucks. They glue on or, in rare cases, have set screws to hold them. Others are available, depending on your application. I might need some measurements, but I can usually come up with a way to get a product on your vehicle. The only exceptions are shift levers with buttons on them, either electronic or mechanical.
ITEMS CAST IN: If you'd like something cast into the knob such as a pin or pendant, it'll need to fit an area about the size of a half dollar in order to display well in a knob. A few items end up larger, like some plastic toys, but I'll want a description of what you have in mind to see whether I can trim or alter the item. 3D items need to fit in the top half of a 2" sphere to fit my molds.
ENGRAVING: If I can draw the part in my CAD program, I can engrave it in your shifter knob. Text, simple images, smiley faces; those are examples of engraving that work well. I won't knowingly violate a copyright, and my program won't accept photos or clip art.

PRICING starts around $50 including shipping. If the project is more time consuming or requires an adapter, the cost rises. I make every effort to give you a very unique product for a reasonable price. Most orders end up somewhere between $60 and $90 as a ballpark figure.

Wholesale prices are available for orders of at least 10 knobs.

PAYMENT:

PayPal is great! Use my email address, koolknobs@collinscom.net. If you prefer a check or money order (payable to Bruce Roosa), you can send it to my address on the contact page. A short note summarizing the project will help me keep track of the order and can include your shipping address.

It'll take me up to 3 weeks, sometimes longer, to complete your project. Timing depends on how many projects are in my queue, but please feel free to drop me an email and ask how things are going. That may seem like a long time, but remember this is a custom, one-off product; I don't keep much in stock, so everything has to be made from scratch. Time can go as long as 5 weeks on more complicated projects.

You're probably going to have questions; Email is the best way to ask them.

Disclaimer/Warranty:

Defects: I will cheerfully correct anything that's wrong with the knob when you receive it for a period of 3 months. I can't guarantee, though, that the resin won't affect the item you send me (even if it ruins it). Neither can I ensure that the knob won't ever be affected by extreme temperatures or damage that might be caused when it is installed. Koolknobs Brand Shifter Knobs is not responsible for any damage or injury caused by its products due to incorrect or improper use. The Koolknobs Brand name is a registered trademark.

Just don't like it: I'll work with you as much as I can if you get the product and it's not what you thought it would be. I take each situation case by case, but if there's nothing wrong with the product, I won't promise to make big changes for free. A custom product like this isn't going to receive a full refund unless there's something wrong with it.
