Anyone found out if these caps are steel yet? or a source for steel/chrome caps that would go over the original? once again, if anyone finds out either, i can then go and engrave it...

Edward, with all of your connections, do you know a vendor or fabricator that could make a simple insert? if he could make something the right size, with the right arc that we could attach directly onto the existing piece with a little epoxy, that would make things mucho easy.

Yes, but i'd need to have a steel stamp made (~$500). And then it would cost about $10 to engrave each one for a small production. And then possibly deal with copyright/trademark issues if i wanted to sell it. If you guys could just give me your shift knobs, i could "personalize" them for much less.

I would be really interested in the AMG cap Easty posted from the Black Series as well. Hopefully, just the cap and not the whole (expensive) assembly.

Talked to the assessories guy at ACC, he is very helpful, and he even had a picture of it and said I was the second guy to ask about this and the he had tried everything and everyone he knew with no luck at all.

I thought I found a Keyless Go shift knob on fleabay, but it may not look as good as I thought. An AMG or one like the picture would be a really nice upgrade, count me in.
