They were 299 from MGW last week. That is reusing the stock shifter knob. You pay more if you want the polished handle and different shift knob

can you specifically order them without the knob for $299? or was that a limited time deal

They are only $299 from MGW, $100 cheaper than JDM

Do I want the Shift knob threads 12mm or 3/8?

If JDM is selling them they are paying what we pay from MGW and marking them up. I've talked to the owner George a few times and he said that they don't like having middle man sales at all.

It won't ship untill Monday anyway. So why dont you wait and call them Monday morning. I feel orders get processed faster when on the phone with companies directly instead of ordering online, so I always wait untill they are open and call. They could answer any questions you have too.

The stop kit is just 2 metal plates that bolt to the shifter base. I have it and really don't need it. The 3650 transmission has internal stops.

The stock shifter is 12mm and 3/8" is a typical aftermarket size.
