Custom rotary shifter

[Ram 187]

Hey guys Im working on designing and manufacturing a custom rotary shifter. Anything you guys would like to see in particular??
I was thinking of a brass knuckle design.

How about a big plug for the hole in the dash, and a handle that goes up on the column?

anything beats the factory knob...I've been searching for one and this is the only one I've found:

I like my rotary dial tho. Makes for a nice clean look. I thought I’d have troubles with mine adjusting from a column shifter but I’ve adapted to it quite well. I dunno, maybe it’s because my Limited has the fancier knob.

Yeah, the price is nuts for a knob! It does look better IMO though. I've also looked at the decals to dress them up, but nothing really to my liking. May just have to get creative

Ram emblem in the centre self leveling would be cool since with auto park the knob isn't always the same orientation. Black surround and a silver center would match most interiors. Floating centre could also be flat and you could print off vinyl decals custom choice that fit in the middle instead.

That gear knob is different and looks ok but 50$ :O
Here is mine

He's gonna find the ******* that designed that hideous POS and beat the crap out of him with them.

I'll be in line behind you. I'd like put in a proper console shifter and convert the rotary knob to a height adjustment for my retractable in-fender 30 caliber mini-guns.

Nice! Former Navy veteran myself (1990-2000). I have a few challenge coins, did you just glue it on?

I used double sided tape and it works well ! Plus side is if I remove the coin or want to change it you can clean the glue off with Goof Off or alcohol ! I like that Shellback coin I never did cross the equator !

The floating center is what I'd like to see.

FYI when you turn the fan to a higher speed you do not go in reverse either lol

I have decal on my 4x4 knob. Fancy enough haha. My next truck will have a dial shifter cause I think I’m gonna want a new 2500 6.4 8spd
