Yeah mine the front and rear drivers side fits fine, but the rear passenger side I cant get the knob on there, good thing I have 2 of then I will just shave it down some so it fits and I can tighten it up. Full firm or nothing!
 
Ok so back the question .... How much do I need to trim the knob for it to fit in the rear ??? Anyone have any pics of it ???
Thanks again
 
If I remember tomorrow I'll take a pic of mine.

I haven't used it personally yet; just the previous owner. But it is trimmed.

From reading these posts, it sounds like the amount you will need to trim will be different depending how much room you have to work with.
 
trim down the lip of the knob to look like the aluminum ones I made. Put it in a vise and cut it :shrug: I thought the pictures were self explanatory......
 
lol! I read this topic at work and couldn't see the pics. Then when I posted last night I didn't look at the earlier posts. Didn't see you had pics!

I want that aluminum knob! My plastic one is a little chewed up.
 
do the aluminum ones stay on? I would like to keep them on even while driving...

Im in for a set of 2 or more Powdercoated!
