Factory Mercedes-Benz Shift Knobs

Do Shift Knobs Make a Difference?

Yes, they do. Shift knobs or gear knobs matter for both the aesthetics and the overall driving experience in a manual or automatic transmission vehicle. Here are some ways it plays a role in your car:

1. Comfort and Grip

   The design and texture of shift knobs can influence how they feel when you grip them in your hand. Some shift knobs have ergonomic shapes that provide a pleasant grip, which is beneficial when shifting frequently or on long road trips. Some gear knobs are made of materials that provide superior insulation against severe temperatures, preventing them from getting too hot or cold to touch.

2. Aesthetics and Customization

   They come in different styles, materials, colors, shapes, and colors that you can choose to personalize according to your preferences to fit or complement the interior style of your vehicle.

3. Weight and Performance

   Some knobs are heavier than others. A weighted variant can add more body to the shifter, improving its feel. The extra weight can smooth out shifts and lessen the effort necessary to engage gears.

We also have timing belts and windshield wiper blades! You can find other OEM accessories and more here at MB Parts Express by browsing our online catalog.
