I just baught a Civic Cxi Hatch (Black) and are about to buy a gear knob. What are the best/better brands to buy and are they easy to fit, are the standard ones hard to get off?

they are all ok.....threaded ones are your best bet as the ones that stay on with little allen bolts tend to rattle loose, pain in the ass.

the greatest words of advice to anyone purchasing a shift knob is to purchase a threaded one.

you will never regret it.....if you get the hex key hold on w/ screws you will be bitching a month or so down the road for it rotating on you....
