Custom Shift Knob?

Hey Everyone,

I know this sounds a little lame, but the biggest issue I have with this car is that little "mini-me" shift knob that appears to have been designed to be operated by...HOBBITS...

Being that I have big hands and am not a fan of "lord of the rings," I find it a little troublesome to move that little thing around. So I'm hoping that I can replace it with a custom knob that's easier to use. Is there anything like this on the market?

I think they designed it to be reminiscent of the DTM shifter.
Maybe your dealer can give you the removal instructions and then you can source an alternative.
