at 2:20 i would have been like "alright guys i changed my mind i actually really like this shifter so we are gonna keep it the way it is"
Justin Bartha 😂😂😂
LOL. Using finishing tools like I have do not scratch things, but, yeah I was going slow to make sure I didn't break something.
Justin Bartha lol
How did you remove the actual knob from the boot itself.. I’m having a hard time
I think I would prefer the stock leather knob.
Do you think the 6th Gen shift knobs fit the 5th Gens ?
I just got the zl1 shift knob for my LT 2016camaro but when u slide it down the holes don't line up how can I fix this issue
hey mat! heads up just tried to do this on my LT with the 1LE shift knob just replaced the caps. It did not slide right into place because it did not have the short shifter! I ended up trimming the plastic on the inside of the knob for it to sit flush and got it on there. The short shifter kit is only available for preorder right now
Nice upgrade to the syrup Camaro ! I would have been scared to scratch it also. Nice job !
could you change the red on the 1le knobs? i don't like the red on mine. i like the grey or silver
Ya Wan Shum there's a Phillips screw inside the middle of the knob!
+I changed my Name the top part is just a screw to remove.
So you have to take to entire boot off just to change the knob?
I have a 2019 SS 1LE. I want to replace the shift knob but keep the suede boot. How does the knob attach to the boot? Would I simply twist the knob counter-clockwise to remove it? Or would I still need to remove the entire boot to access the T20 bolt?
I have a ball shift knob for my 2021 manual cam but it’s threaded and won’t fit on the shaft. Is there an adapter or something I need?
did you ever figure this out ?😵💫 in the same situation rn
Thanks man. I have the carbon fiber shifter lid $95. Suppose to be installed at dealer, but they forgot and sent me it in the mail to figure out.
Very nice Matt. Wish it was that simple for the 5th Gen
Is there any way to install a boot to cover the gears on an automatic
Thank you oh my god I love these easy quick vids
Ironically, the day before I saw this video I had the shifter on my Fifty SS replaced. Dealer did it under warranty. I noticed it was scratched when I took delivery, so we scheduled the appointment to get it replaced. Mine is an 8AT, but I believe the procedure is probably the same, since I can see the tabs on the unit then removed.
@lethalgarage do you happen to know for an automatic... is the plastic area around/below the boot removable?
Does anyone know if the ZL1 shift boot has red stitching ?
How is the access under the boot?
Is there any lube points?
+Rotor Wolf I'll be honest, I didn't look
LethalGarage Thanks for the reply.
I'm just grasping for straws in way to improve cold shifting on my '17 1LE.
Above 120 it shifts fairly smooth, below that it is a notchy clunky mess...
Link for the shift knob doesnt work. Got another link ?
Can you tell me more about that particular shift knob? Does it shift faster or is it just leather vs suede? Thnx
+Demar Gio just design and looks, same shifting function.
Hi Lethal, do you know if this ss shift knob will also fit the RS model ?
Where do you buy all your kits?
Can we make the Red SS Camaro shift knob fit a 2017 Chevy SS. According to Chevy SS forums, this can be and had been done with a little bit of automotive ingenuity. Your thoughts? Thanks.
I am not familiar with the SS sedan
Just found a company that makes a cool shift knob replacement kit. Curious if you had tried any aftermarket kits. It’s close to 100 for knob and adapter but may still try it
I haven't tried any yet.
So i didn't got it what is the diffrence between the old and the new shiftknob?
The old one was leather wrapped, the new one is suede wrapped, so it provides more grip, and overall just looks nicer. ;)
How do you replace the cap?
The cap is held on with a single phillips head screw accessible inside the shaft. Super easy. I just replaced my cap with the GM carbon fiber one.
Where do you get the 1LE version?
Are u going to do a track video?!? That would be really nice to c those R888 in action.
+Hector Estrada At some point when I can make it to the track. It has rained on the days I have planned thus far.
So you can’t just replace the knob and keep the boot ?
more finger strength!!! Do you even lift bro?
Quick question @lethalgarage since he shift knob isn't a twist off can I even put a aftermarket knob on it ?
it would have to be built the same way.
Hey man, do you know what the diameter of the shifter shaft is, the piece the shift knob slides back on or the diameter of the shift knob hole?. thanks
+Bilbo Jenkins I will have to measure once I get back to the states
Cool thanks, been looking for it online
eek! I was afraid you were going to scratch the trim piece. could have covered it with tape to be safe. I just installed my ACS Spoiler, love it! thanks for the inspiration to get the spoiler.
+Terry Drake The trim tool is smooth. I wasn't worried ;)
Could you take a heat gun or hair dryer on a low heat setting to replace the shift pattern cap so you can put your SS cap on the new shift knob?
the shift pattern cap it held on by a screw.
Thanks for the bomb videos you make , helps a lot 🔥
Cool man. I saw a ZL1 with bolt on run low 10... so I think u might be around mid 10 to low 11? If stock 1le can run 12.3 on prep tracks... either way 👍🍻💪✌️
how to do this with the automatic? when removing the leather boot there was no bolts at all.
+jks211 I haven't done this for an auto yet.
You might have said this but where did you purchase the shift knob at? Thanks
+Brett Secrist Linked below in the description. From thatgmpartsguy
Where did you get your finishing tools from? I need to get some
+Shareil Elhamnia These ones are shockingly from Harbor Freights Tools.
May be an old video but still helped, THX!!! Only difference, my 2021 had a T25 screw... ZL1 interior parts look so much better :-)
Hey lethal can this shiftlnob twist off? And if so will it fit 5 th gens?
It doesn't twist. I know the steering wheel fits the 5th gen, I don't think the shifter does.
Thankyou, appreciate you're response .
lol, I'm watching this video to replace my micro suede shifter because I absolutely hate that material...with a passion!
looks nice! are you planning on running aftermarket shifter in the future?
jaime This isn't his car he has an auto
oops,i keep forgetting he has an auto.thanks!
added the 10-speed shift knob link - ➤ GEN 6 ZL1 10-speed shift knob: bit.ly/2mEyFWN
I'll be doing this to mine when I get her in few more months. wish u would have don't the zl1 steering wheel too!
done*
+Michael Van I did... video goes live tomorrow
Niiice, can't wait. I'll be watching that for sure. Keep these vids coming brotha :D
My new 18 started coming loose. Way easier then i thought...
thanks for the link. bought the 1le one that says ss on it instead of zl1 but ended up dropping $200 more than expected... i need to unsubscribe to avoid temptations lol
+Tbis2399 lol.
The suede one gets all nasty because the sweat from ur hand after a couple of months.
Would you like to sell the one you removed?
+brandon w keeping it
LethalGarage thanks for the reply. Have a good 4th!
I love it
just noticed you changed your name lol
Prying on that trim makes me cringe.
Gm says it takes 3 hrs, lol
Reason #1 why I makes these videos
