It's a SL65 Black Series shift knob. You should be able to buy online or through your MB dealership. Just get the vin from a SL65 Black Series so they will know what to order. It won't work if you have keyless go since that's where the start button is on the standard non black series SL.

That carbon fiber gear shifter gate is the bomb too. Although it probably costs as much (or more) than the leather boot it replaces.
