So.... my shift knob now turns on the shaft and the leather is tearing...... i thought i could deal with it but it is constant annoyance. Anyone have any solution to a shift knob that is spherical and DOESN'T use set screws? I was thinkin about chopping off the two little nubs off the top of the shaft and threading it so i could just buy a stupid nylon ball and thread it on there. Input?
what the hell.

I had the same problem. I bought a shift knob (generic but it looks great), leather shift boot, and leather ebrake boot from ebay. Cost me like $45 after all shipping, which was a rip (the s/h that is). Worth it though.
Mine does not use set screws.
