yep. i went back to stock for this reason. i was all excited to get an ractive one years ago - polished to match my ebrake - and then those 3 damn screws - scratched the metal housing of the shifter and would never stay on thereafter. sidenote - i'm thinking about cutting through that metal and shortening the shifter altogether NO, THIS IS NOT FOR SHORTER SHIFT< BLAH BLAH>, IT IS FOR AESTHESTICS ONLY!!!, as it's way too high. a friend of mine has a cabrio and their shifters are all short. it looks good :P will post pics when i do it.

for now, keep your stock shifter. otherwise, check out ebay - there are NEWER knobs that claim they don't strip for autos. they're the type r ones I think?
