You could use the head off of your sisters favorite doll.

Definitely a skull. If not a skull, then an 8-ball. There are traditions to uphold here!

The cold side from a stock Sprint turbo. Should be about the right size . . .

I always thought a small bore piston would be cool shifter knob.
Like out a Honda 90 trail bike.

Beer tapper handle of your choice
Crap, I meant to put that on the list.

I don't drink though...so I don't really want to look like a poser. :rocker
So, you sword fight (Sword handle), while playing (Baseball), fighting with (Brass Knuckles), chucking (Grenades). But don't want to *pose* with a beer tapper?

It's threaded alright. Probably has some loctite on it from the factory. Use a pipe wrench. Don't plan on reusing your shifter knob after using this technique! :shake

You should find a model sized H2 and use that. Or maybe a beat up Prius model, perhaps detailed flames all over it?

Use a geo as a shifter knob in a truck.

I used a vice-grip on the steel shifter, gripping directly under the shift knob and my pipe wrench on the Geo shift knob. :banghead

I had one that looks ordinary but it would come apart to hide...spices

I've also had a silver one with a bunch of blue leds on it, but it ate batterys and I'd hit the button on it while I would be driving and it would always go into strobe mode. Id keep pulling over, curse myself, and get back on the road. Happened at least 3 times before I chucked it out the window and used a pair of vice grips to get a good grip till I could get to walmart and get the spice one.
