Talking Shift knob question (FIRST POST EVER)

Hi everyone!!!

Want to let everyone know that im now a proud owner of a 2000 CLK 430. Let me say that i am completely blown away by this car. When I initially started my car search, i was looking at Auidi A4 and BMW 328CI, but the minute i got into the clk, i knew it was meant to be.

My question is this, I have the "Black Wood" interior (I cant remember the official name off the top of my head right now) and I would like to know if anyone knows where i could find a shift knob made from that wood color, or the best matching shift knob for this kind of interior. I like the current one, but really really want an all wood black one. Thanks for all who take time to respond and help.

Anyway, nice to be a part of the forum.
