Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- In this video I install a likewise shift knob on my Volvo C30. The C30 does not have threads on its shifter rod assembly, and requires and adapter to replace the OEM setup. In this video I discuss the adapter available from likewise, retainer clip, and shift knob being installed together. I would highly recommend using this method if changing out your shift knob on any vehicle without threads, as it provides a much more secure grip and improves the shifting feel greatly.

Finally found a C30. Gotta admit your 5 things you love video was a BIG influence that turned me onto this car. Im very excited. Picking it up tommorow.
Im glad I could help get you into one of these amazing cars! I hope you are enjoying it :)
Wanted to see how this all fitted together and what parts i needed to order from likewise,was worried about ordering something i may not of needed or may not have worked with another part.. literally scrolled through so many videos that barely showed anything of how it all clipped together..thanks for being the only person to do a decent well filmed video!! You kick ass!👊🏼😎
Hell YEAH man!! That's hilarious that right after I made that comment you posted this. I'm happy to see more people are finding this out. 100% worth the price and wait for shipping from Australia lol. good looks
Hahaha yeah it was great timing! Definitely worth the wait and price for me!
Wow what timing, just received my likewise knob today in the mail for my C30 and was wondering when you were gonna upload the next part to your last vid🤔 Keep up the good work man!
Glad it worked out! Enjoy your new shift knob🙂
Hey I see you went with a different look now but it turned out dope! I might have to consider this or the adapter, opens up more possibilities.
Thank you! And yes I would definitely recommend it even just for the increased secure feeling alone. I might use your idea with duct tape to make it even firmer tbh haha!
Gonna try this for a better fit for my jewel on my sentra SR Turbo because there isnt any threads. Been using an adapter off of amazon for now but I even measured my shifter rod and its like 2.7mm so I'm gonna use a vacuum cap and hope it works out.
First time hearing about vacuum caps, what's that? Maybe i will get one too, my clamp adapter is slightly bigger for my mitsubishi colt shift knob
What size clamp adapter did u get,
What happens when you want to take the retainer off ?
Just the video I was looking for but do you know if the retainer works with the Neil diamond shift knob
I believe the retainer works only with other likewise products. As long as it’s one of the likewise plus products it should fit!
As long as it’s the second generation Neil diamond. Plus+ products only work with other plus+ products
to get all the benefits of the PLUS+ system including compatibility with the Shift Boot Retainer PLUS+, you will need to purchase a PLUS+ adapter with a PLUS+ shifter.
I am struggling to take off the knob off of my C30, a lot of videos say push down on the knob and turn left to take it off and I’ve done it but it I cannot take it off, how did you take off your original gear knob? I really want to change my knob, I’m tired of the stock knob.
Hi, I don't know if you're still having this problem and I only know that for my t5 (might be different on diesel or other engine trims) It took quite a bit of force to take off the first time.
Did you order 10, 12, or 14mm adapter?
12mm!
@@AmrinDosanjh thank you, I’m currently struggling with my shifter as well, it’s the worst ive ever seen lol
@@juicetahn_personal Ive been there haha, I hope this method helps you out 👍🏽
@@AmrinDosanjh thanks! Is the 10mm too small? Is that why you ordered the 12mm? I wonder because you said you had to use a vacuum cap to make it fit snug in the shift stick
@@juicetahn_personal my situation is a bit odd since my rod was sawed into so it’s a bit oddly shaped LOL. I selected the 12mm because that’s what our vehicle size is supposedly from what I heard from others and online. Everyone else with a C30 has used 12mm without any issues
