Sounds like we have ten orders for the knob. I hope I can find somebody who has them in stock!

I would take a shiftknob also in addition to the stuff in my earlier post.

The Roush pedals arrived the other day! Here are some pics comparing them to the Autovation pedals:

Note how much thicker the Roush pedals are. The Roush pedals are on top.

Here you can see a comparison of the dimensions.

The Autovation pedals pictured above have a "satin" finish. The Roush pedals have a "machined" finish. The Autovation pedals can also be purchased in a "machined" finish, so don't use that as your discriminating criterion.

The brake and clutch pedals are similar in size and shape, and the mounting holes are in the same place. The real difference is in the gas pedals! The Autovation pedal is oversized whereas the Roush pedal is smaller than stock.

The oversized pedal is favorable for heel-toe maneuvers; however, it could be a problem for people with wide shoes. By contrast, the Roush pedal would maximize the distance between the throttle and the brake, making it ideal for people who find themselves pushing down the brake pedal when tipping the throttle.

If shoe size is not an issue for you, then you might want the Roush pedals anyway if attempting to complete the Roush image inside and out.

Lastly, the Roush pedals are a closeout item, so we can get them for about one-third the price of the Autovation.
