i got this gift for a friend and he loves it.Pros- lighter than most stock knobs, which provides effortless shifting-gives better feeling/ connection with the driver and gearbox-looks great with a black or dark interior- it doesnt feel cheapcons- it feels hot in the summer and cold in the winter- because it is lighter, vibration is noticeable when car is in neutral- instructions are then same style as ikea, install could be difficult for noobies
