Hello,br>br>This will, indeed, fit. Thank you. br>br>
It should, most likely, come with additional adapters to allow it to adapt to the majority of standard vehicles. Mine are set to a z33 as well.

One of the more unexpected items I've ever ordered. I wasn't expecting much, but the quality is actually quite good. The threads were excellent, and there were no scratches or flaws in the ball itself. It also shifts well. The issue I had was that it was too high, which was not the fault of the manufacturer. I installed this on my 2015 Mustang, and the knob sits about 1. 25 inches above the reverse locker, which must be lifted up. It's 5 inches higher than the stock knob, so it's messing with my muscle memory for now, but it'll get better with time. Overall, I'm very pleased with it.
Caution: To keep the metal threads and epoxy ball together (it reminds me of hot glue), this shifter uses a very low melting point adhesive. When the temperature rises above 100 degrees Fahrenheit, the ball begins to wobble and spin between the metal threading and the epoxy layer, indicating that the adhesive has melted. The shifter has almost come off while getting on the highway on hot afternoons because of this adhesive (I suspect it was a cheaper alternative to industrial grade adhesive). This makes shifting difficult, and the driver becomes distracted as a result. If you live in an area where summer temperatures exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit, you should consider purchasing a shifter that does not rely on this weak adhesive to keep it in one piece.
For my 2003 Honda Civic Coupe, I purchased this item. By no means is it the knob's fault. The shift boot on the 7th generation Civic is held in place by these strange locking tabs. When you remove the factory shift knob, the shift boot sags and clanks as you drive, which isn't very appealing. There are solutions, but you'll need some washers to complete the task. There are numerous how-to videos available online, and it is not difficult. It does not necessitate cutting or unscrewing anything other than the original shift knob. Before I got it right, it took me about 10 minutes to find the right washers and the right combination of what I wanted. It looks pretty good once you get it to work. The quality of the product appears to be satisfactory.
I received my shift knob for my Fiat 500 in a timely manner and was pleased with the quality of the finish. So far, everything has been great. br>br>My only complaint was that the hardware included for mounting the product only addressed an "exterior" threaded (male) shift lever/shaft. This product does not address the female thread application on my car. I was able to locate a bolt that looked like it was threaded to my shifter and was long enough to connect one of the threaded couplers provided. I needed to machine the bolt's head to fit through the ball's threaded opening and secure it. br>br>Because of the way the shifter is threaded, the ball sits much higher than my original, leaving about 1. The shaft was exposed for 5 inches, and it didn't look particularly sexy. I found some 1/2" black irrigation hose that I carefully cut to a precise measurement (so that it wouldn't interfere with my lift function to get into reverse) and placed it over the exposed metal shaft, and it made a huge difference in appearance. br>br>I'm not bothered by the shift knob being raised. It's surprisingly relaxing. The ball adds a nice touch to the final product, and I'm happy with it.
It doesn't cause my palm to freeze like the stock one did. The only point on which I disagree is how slick it can become when your palms sweat.
It's perfect for me because the diameter is just right for my hand and it's solid and sturdy. It arrived today, October 28th, despite the fact that it was supposed to arrive between November 1st and 6th, so shipping was excellent.
We bought this as a gift for my husband, but when we tried to install it (which turned out to be fairly simple after some research), we discovered the knob didn't fit his 2015 Dodge Dart, and we couldn't find an adapter that would work either. I ended up returning it (without any issues). The product was of excellent quality, but it did not fit correctly.
For my brother's 1979 Toyota Corolla, it was a perfect fit and screwed right into the shaft. His car is yellow and was given to him as a gift. He couldn't have been happier. This took the place of the less expensive knobs that required an Allen key or two to secure in place. A nut is built right into the design. It was well-boxed and the material quality felt solid.
