Got the whole set, pretty simple install. The directions are that TWM provided are pretty good, if not you can search around to find some. Im still rockin the stock knob so im not sure about the skunk2 knob

Skunk konb is way heavier than stock. It weighs almost 1 pound, may not sound like a lot but trust me its heavy. It also sits alot lower on the base which= an even shorter more positive shift its worth every penny!

Skunk 2 knob isnt that much heavier than stock. I use to have one, I dont think its worth the money.

Skunk2 knob is worth especially when you pair it up with the corsport package. If you like a nice mechanical feel

I just finished installing the cable bushings from TWM. What is the small piece of sandpaper for? Moving the shifter around, it feels stiffer. I'm waiting on my short shifter to come which I ordered from Corsport. I have the Shifter base bushings here sitting on my desk. Probably install it tomorrow morning. Can someone point to me to the install DIY on the TWM site?

And i belive the sandpaper was just incase the bushings were to big, you can sand them down to fit properly

just came back from a test drive. I can feel the stiffness a little more which makes a little more smoother. Can't wait to see what it will feel like with the shifter base bushings and short shifter...
