Barton shift knob adapters

Hey all,
So I've never really been a fan of kidney shaped shift knobs like the one that comes standard, and I've been looking for a suitable replacement. I had some prerequisites for a replacement knob however.

1: it had to be round
2: it had to look good, and fit the heritage of an American muscle car
3: it had to be lighter than the stock knob
4: it had to sit lower than the stock knob

Enter Barton Shifters.
Ordered the adapter and shift knob directly from them, and the kit arrived soon after. They accidentally sent me a knob with the wrong pattern, but they more than made up for it by overnighting a replacement without asking for a return.
Customer service from them was fantastic, the machine work, and the fit and finish are better than factory. And the looks? See for yourself.

Absolutely, I should have included it in my initial posting. Be sure to select the proper year, and knob.
