shorter shift knobs?

Is voodoo the only manufacturer of shorter shift knobs for the Fit?

Has anyone compared the heights of the various aftermarket shift knobs?

do you mean a short shifter kit? or just the shift knob (countersunk)? I have the T1R titanum knob, and it's weighted and countersunk, so it sits much lower then the stock shifter I had on my civic.

I meant the actual knobs themselves.

I know that voodoo's knobs sit lower but I didn't know about other brands. I really like the skunk2/blox knobs but wasn't sure if they sat lower -- like voodoo's.

I have a Skunk2 knob and yes it does sit about half an inch lower and it's very heavy so the shifting feel is very precise, direct and soft because the mass of the knob helps you engage the gears better.

I have the voodoo knob and love it - If I remember right, the height is more than 1" less than the stock knob. Works perfect for me.

It's not really heavy, but it is noticeably heavier than the stock knob.

the GReddy counter-weight knob is bored to the top as well as 13oz.. almost a pound. Great stuff.

I have a Voodoo Pearl shift knob.....which is basically the aluminum one with a clear coat to make it shiny. I really like it. I've heard the Skunk and GReddy knobs are nice too. My buddy has a GReddy on his Eclipse Spyder and swears by it.
