I won't know until I am finished with them. I have to get them anodized and I don't know how much that will cost yet. They should be about the same as the stainless though.

Hey Tom,

 

Just ordered a stainless knob from you. I had a $25.96 balance in my paypal account from a recent transaction refund. Figured I'd just give you all of it so I didn't have a balance anymore. Thanks man!

got my knob! i spray painted it black with some gloss black and it matches the trim of the f90 perfectly.

 

thank you!

 

Put a picture up so we can see it.

I'd be very interested in a black knob as well! Just ordered my F90bt, so at least a week or two before I even get it installed... Just expressing my interest!

Tom,

New to this forum... reading up on my daughters 700, you have solved her only gripe with the unit so far. I have sent the $22.00 vis PayPal.

Thanks for the quick fix for her.

here is my stock knob with an o-ring and the next pic is of the new stainless steel HohlKnob with 3 o-rings.

Holy COW!! There is some serious rubber on that knob. Nice to see a knob wearing armor. Probably works great though!!!

 

Thanks for posting.

So far I have made about 100 knobs and the orders are still coming in daily. THIS IS CRAZY!!! :D

 

Hell I may quit my day job and just follow Pioneer around and fix their mistakes lol

Posted Jan 07, 2009 · 17:26 UTC#192

Lol and you only expected to make like 20 at the most...you should try and patent it before Pioneer gets a look at this and tries to claim it. I know i would if my customers weren't satisfied with my knob (innuendo intended)

Dude, I was expecting to make about 5!!!

 

I'm working on the Black ones right now and they should be ready in a few weeks at the most. I have to send them off to get annodized and that will take a week or so.

 

Anyway, thanks to all for your support. I will post some really cool pics pretty soon. Standby....

whoohhoo cant wait to see the Black ones yaya good work man!!

Posted Jan 09, 2009 · 01:22 UTC#195

I received the knob today and it was a perfect fit... Thanks, the daughter is stoked with this mod. I am buying a F90 next week so I will need a silver one knurled if possible, what's the quote for one knurled??

Knurling will add $10.00 for a total of $32.00

 

Thanks, glad you liked it.

 

Black ones are coming soon if you want to wait a few weeks.

Posted Jan 10, 2009 · 03:27 UTC#197

What would the cost be for a black knob, either with an o-ring, or (preferably) knurled? Diamonds or straight lines, I don't care... I just want the knob to be easier to turn with 1-2 fingers instead of having to actually grip the knob like i do now...

Posted Jan 10, 2009 · 04:46 UTC#198

I am new around here. Just got my f90 installed last week end and cannot stand the knob. I want a black on as soon as I can. Pm me with the info on payment And price. when do we get to see a pic of a black knerled knob might be interested in one of those.

Posted Jan 10, 2009 · 05:07 UTC#199

Could you post pictures of the Knurling? I am on the fence about that.

Posted Jan 10, 2009 · 16:48 UTC#200

The wait for a black one is killing me...

 

Ooer... :oops:

 

So do we have a more specific timeframe? Need...knob....!
