Order your Koolknobs
Brand Product Today!

How do I get one?

I'll need some information about your vehicle and the Koolknobs brand product you'd like to have made:

1) What color would you like for the background?

You can choose from red, blue, black, bone, yellow, orange, green, grey, and pearled clear. I can swirl them together for you (two colors) if you like. Or, you can send me a small liquid sample of your paint for a knob color matched to your vehicle! There's no extra charge for the color matching.

2) I need to know the thread size of your shift lever.

Just take your old knob to a hardware store, find a bolt it fits correctly, and note the thread size (no need to buy the bolt). It'll be something like 3/8-24 or M10 X 1.5. I can take it from there. You can also email me with the year and make of your vehicle. I keep track of the various vehicles, so I may already have that info.

Some vehicles don't have a threaded shift lever (you Ford truck owners know what I'm talking about here!), but that won't stop us! I'll just need a diameter of the lever (taken with an accurate tool like a caliper) and the length of the ribbed part of the shift lever. Again, if you have questions, email me. I've been keeping track of those, too.

Recently completed: an adapter for the popular Lokar brand shifters. It takes some extra work to make, so its adapter will have an extra charge of $10. I've got the necessary measurements, so be sure to let me know it's for a Lokar shift lever, and I'll accomodate your needs.

If you have a column shift, I'll need similar information about the ribbed part of the shift lever so I can make you a sleeve that fits over your old knob's location.

3) What shape would you like?

• 2-1/4" Round (about the size of a pool ball)
• 2" Round (very popular size, probably what you have now)
• 1-7/8" Round (small, like the old muscle car knobs from the 60's)
• Small Taper (most people use this on a column shift)
• Teardrop (you'd use this on a column shift)
• Tall Oval (similar to the teardrop, for column shifters)
• 2" Flared Top (check out the photos page for the shape)
• 2" Oval (Old timey flavor to this one)
• New, a Tall Taper similar to the ones found on the big rigs.
• Be sure to check out the Column Tapers on the second sample page.
• Other custom shapes available for added charge.

4) How much will it cost?

Prices are as follows; add $6 to cover shipping. By the way, if you order two knobs, I only charge you one $7 shipping charge!:)

If I put something in it for you, it's $25 a knob.

The Skull and Smiley knobs are $30 because I make my own parts for these.

If you want a swirl pattern, it's $20 (easier to make).

The new-to-the-line dash knobs are $12.50 each. (they take about the same time to make as the full size shifter knob!)

Optional brushed aluminum jam nut, $10. (these aren't always needed, so ask about this option)

Optional polished jam nut, $15.

Lokar fit, $10.

Included in these prices will be the necessary adapter to fit your vehicle. I make some little extras, too, like special adapters that take extra time to make. Ask about prices, because it depends on how much time they take to make. You can get knobs cheaper than these, but you'll end up with "universal" fit, which usually doesn't. You'll also love the "feel" of these, smooth and comfortable in all seasons and temps. I'm currently not making anything with electronic or mechanical buttons in the adapter, except for the Lokar adapter mentioned above.

Column Shifters

For column shifters (usually a splined shaft), a brushed aluminum adapter is included. Add $5.00 for polished finish. This adapter should be glued on with a good epoxy, like JB Weld. It won't vibrate or come loose. I can do set screws if you want, but they wouldn't be my first choice. For most of the column knobs, the adapter is done so that it replaces your stock knob; it won't show at all in most cases.

5) How do I pay for this?

You can use your Paypal account to pay for your shifter knob, or I also accept personal checks or money orders (payable to Bruce Roosa) when you place your order.

6) When will I get the product?

It usually takes about 3 days to make the product once I have your order. Another 3 or 4 for the Post Office to do its thing, and you've got a Koolknobs brand product on your vehicle. But just in case I'm backed up on orders, give me two weeks before you get to wondering about where your money went!
