Default OBX vs. Momo shift *****

I've heard people complaining that the OBX shift ***** available from Scion seem to get loose and spin...has anybody had this problem with other ***** as well, specifically Momo? (I'm looking at getting a Momo **** to replace to stock **** but I don't want to drop upwards of $75 on a **** that I'm just going to have to mess with and tighten all the time.)

wow - that looks great...I was looking at either the Module chrome or the Sphere airmetal so either would be a similar ****.

how do the MOMO pedals attach? clips? do you drill through the pedals? or is it a complete replacement?

if it seems to spin alot you can use teflon tape around the top of the shifter which will tighten the more you spin it. Ive had friends do that & it works for them.

Is there any difference (like size of the shaft hole) between the Fatboy that Scion sells and the ones you can get elsewhere? I want a red/black one, not a black or titanium one ;p Having trouble finding 'em...

consider the greddy weighted ****. the weight actually makes a huge difference in shift-feel, and it's threaded for toyota's so there's no need to worry about having it come loose. if you like the styling of it is all on you, though.

anyway. just trying to recommend what i think is a good product.
