Just got the KNOB from Tom the other day, immediatly put it on, i found it to go on even easier after getting it started by using a socket on teh backside to push down. easier on my hands atleast. gotta say pushing in is easier, i dont find my self changing channels or anything else when trying to change volume like i used to. i was worried about it bouncing when hitting bumps because I live off a dirt road and its harsh but it hasnt done that either.

 

Good job Tom! Even my GF likes your KNOB.

 

Thanks, glad you like it. BTW my knob is bigger than your was? LOL :shock:

I take it you have an 08 Hennessy Viper? Now that's cool!!!

No but that is a sweet car, I have a 2008 Wrx STI Subaru and love it, sold my new vette to get the STI it is a blast in the TN/NC mountains (Deals Gap) and my wife and son can then enjoy the tight twisty with him. Hennessy is my last name.

Got my knurled stainless knob put it on and give it a go and all I can say is this sucks! OK, so let me explain…. Before I knew about the replacement knob that Tom makes, I bought a Sony wired remote because the original knob on the F90BT was tiny and difficult to use especially with gloves. Now with Tom’s replacement knob installed its awesome, easy to grip and manipulate even with gloves on! Everything works great! Now the sucky part is I have this Sony remote that I bought that is sitting on the counter taunting me… Not sure if I’ll every use/install the remote now that I have my new knob!!!!

 

Just to clarify, the new knob is SWEET, and ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! Thanks Tom! :D

 

Just wish I’d never bought the remote… :cry:

 

And don't even bother thinking about buying the knob. JUST BUY IT! IT"S WORTH IT!!!!!

Payment sent for the Knurled Black knob...

 

Man, Thomas... this is like shootin' Fish in a barrel for you...

 

You should have priced em at like $50 bucks each so you could quit your day job... :lol:

 

I am probably one of many guys here who ordered our knob from you before we ever even got our Avics! To tell you the truth, your KNOB was instrumental in my decision to go with the F series.... I hate the factory knob because it's Tiny and I am not (nor are my hamfists) so I need some Beef to grab onto when I'm crankin up the tuneage...

 

Anyway, shoot me one of them thar black'ns with the Knurlin' on it, please.

I would install it. I bought one of the sony remote as well and I love it. I find it keeps my eyes on the road more when changing channels with the radio or sirius.
