manual shifter suggestions

will the c32 shift knob (boot) fit the c230k C7manual shifter ?
is there an european or alternate shifter for the manual shifter.
i have put a little wear on the C7 shifter i have.

i need a replacement manual shifter but i figured i would get some input.


suggestions,

i too have put wear on my C7 shifter. im either going to replace it with the 2005 6-spped shift knob or the 2005 aluminium/leather shift knob with the star on it.

yes a C32 shift knob will fit a stick shift.

i believe it is in the part center. i also think the star would look better. besides i know where the gears are already. i havent ordered it yet. i was just browsing thru different pics and narrowed it down to those two. ill contact my parts guy tomorrow and get a part number and cost.

I set the policy 'no mod on my c', but I can't resist this one.
Show us the picture asap! (aluminium/leather shift knob with the star on it)

Yeah, I know what you mean. I just recovered from Boxer mod disease, but now just found VitamnC disease. No known cure anyway, so let the show continue!

Vitamn C was the beginning of this craze, the plates arrived before the car did.

ill call the parts manager and see if i can get some prices and part numbers for 05 shifters.
