Total add-ons:
Upgrade your Volkswagen DSG automatic interior with the Billetworkz Titanium Brushed Shift Knob and Lockout System, a direct replacement for your factory DSG shift knob. This setup not only enhances the look of your interior, it provides a crisp, mechanical engagement for a more performance-oriented feel.
Each titanium knob is CNC‑machined from 6Al‑4V Grade 5 Titanium for unmatched strength, durability, and a sleek, performance‑driven feel. With a raw brushed surface, the knob adds a sleek, understated aesthetic while enhancing grip.
Our exclusive shift knob and automatic adapter system replaces the factory shift knob button with a custom pull-up lockout. Instead of pressing a button to change gears, you simply pull up on the lockout collar to engage. Then let the spring-loaded design snap securely back into position. This provides a smooth, confident engagement every time.
The lockout mechanism is CNC-machined from premium 6061 aluminum and available in multiple finishes (Black, Blue and Red).

One of my favorite car mods I've ever done. Every time I shift I get to feel that 6AL-4V titanium in my hand. The size and weight of this shift knob is perfect for my GR Corolla. I went with a short shift linkage and the added leverage that this knob provides compliments the linkage upgrade. This is one of the more expensive shift knobs on the market but in my opinion it has been worth every penny.

Fitment is perfect! And looks amazing. One of the best parts that I install on my car.

That’s the best word I can say. It’s just…right. When you have something of quality in your hands, you can just feel it. It’s a big deal. Get it.

David B We wanted to go with something updated without looking too out of place for the original interior, so we went with the tall teardrop with no engraving. The weight is great & the install was easy. There is a gap to the shift boot, but we will fix that soon.

The Mustang Dark Horse manual trans comes with a blue titanium shift knob. This make my auto look the way it should have from the factory. I also used the manual transmission boot.

This is a high quality product first off. I'm incredibly happy with it, how it feels, how it looks, and how easy it was to install. It looks great in my kartboy short throw and I was lucky enough to find a burnt titanium reverse lockout through a third party seller. Unfortunately billetworkz discontinued them. That being said having the matching set in my car is awesome.

Love the torched Ti piston knob, feels excellent in hand. The weight is right between stock and heavy weight knobs and still shifts smoothly. It’s been in the upper 90’s where I live and the heat is less noticeable than my old stainless steel weighted knob. 10/10 for me!

Returning customer and the titanium knob was spot on. Only complaint would be reverse lockout cover doesn't blend well, nothing a little piece of vinyl can't fix though.

Cody Carlson I've had the lightbulb style installed for a few weeks now and I like it so much more than the STI knob I had before. It's sooooo smooth and every gear change is more pleasant. Looks really good too!

Feels excellent in my hand. The bare finish feels better than my previous powder coated stainless shift ball (even though I really like that shift ball also) This ball also doesn't get as cold in the winter or as hot in the summer. A+

Kevin A. Sphere
Sits VERY low on the shifter and there is no clean transition from the leather wrap to the locking nut. Looks janky without some sort of piece there. The Miata stock shifter has more of a "neck". Not terribly pleased given the cost.

Looks fantastic in my car

The shift knob looks better on than in the pictures on the web site. Gives the interior an expensive look.

Michael Stewart Piston
The pictures just don’t do this product justice. Feels so much better in hand when driving my car with the sledge than my previous shifter. Would highly recommend this to anyone looking or on the fence! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR PULL THE TRIGGER!

I got the tall lightbulb in brushed titanium. It has a great weight, feel, and adds to the notchy feeling of my shifter.
C
Christos Katechis I love this shift knob so much, changed the way the whole experience feels! I had made a mistake and ordered the wrong adapter for my shifter, contacted customer service and they sent me the correct part immediately!! I highly recommend using Billetworkz for any manual car!

I have several items from BilletWorkz and what brings me back here is the product quality and the responsiveness from the owner as well, I've had a few questions and they always respond. This shift knob is perfectly crafted and I am pleased yet again with the talents that come from the company. I will be getting the E brake handle cover and window vents soon ..

Greg Previte Got the torched ti tall teardrop shift knob for my vw mk6 golf r after waiting months for that particular shape to restock. The weight was worth it! It’s beefier than I thought it was going to be, but it feels great in hand. The finish has a satin feel to it that’s really nice. Also worth noting that the vw/Audi adapter is quality as well and very secure.

Dan White Got a titanium shift knob and reverse lockout. The stock ST reverse lockout is cheap plastic, this adds a high quality metal replacement. Loving it so far.

RUSSELL FORSYTH Great shifter - went for the tall teardrop in brushed finish for my Mazdaspeed3. Same height as OEM shift knob and similar weight. Clamped down on the standard shift boot without issue. Amazing, great quality product that looks like an upgrade without being too garish.
