yep, it is actually better off to just stay stock and avoid the trouble.

well, for one......you bought the wrong kind of shift knob. they DO make threaded ones, and cars come STOCK with the type you bought......

i bought one of the chrome skull's with the red light up eye's for my old truck. i had that problem so i just took some JB weld and got it on there forever... everyone loved the skull. its was great besides on the really hot days...

I would just use loctite on the screw myself..its alot easier!

get the removable loctite i think the blue apply it to the threads so they don't back out...if you ever need you can still remove if necessary or you decide to change knobs....//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

the b&m short shift kits use screw-ons

next to a nice steering wheel, it's the best money you can spend for your car, hands down

I have a Skunk2 Shiftknob. They use a nut/bolt whatever underneath the knob to keep the knob in place.

Use thread glue. My shift knob was decided for my shifter and it has a stalk you tighten with a wrench, then the knob goes over it and tightens down with an allen screw...may want to look for something like that
