Yeah, I noticed that turning-till-the-cows-come-home bit about the lock knobs; I ended up so frustrated with the dang things not coming off, the next time my baby was in for servicing I just got the service techs to do it. (And from the looks of the originals they gave back to me afterwards, those knobs even gave the pros a hard time!)
I don't know about that Revel chrome shift knob; I'm really trying to keep any chrome to a bare minimum. Shucks, I'd be happy with simply having a knob the same paint color as my exterior, as opposed to that original white knob; I'm certainly not knocking other people's choices, but I just don't want a cueball, dice, or skulls.
My REAL fantasy is for either a wood or plastic wood-looking knob, to go with my woody panels. (And a matching wood steering wheel would look nice. And maybe baby-moon wheels, with the wide whitewalls. And yearly checks from the lottery people.....)
