Guys..does anyone know the Mazda part # for this shift knob?

It's for a Series II RX-8 6MT. It has the right 6MT shift pattern on top. For what I know..this is somewhat ultra-rare to find. Thanks in advance.

Manual Trans Shift Knob for 2011 Mazda RX-8|BBM5-46-030

there is a note on there saying "BBM5-46-030 replaces: C291-46-030" so i would guess its C291-46-030

Thanks, Jerry. I did a part search on my online Mazda parts supplier..it gave me several results, though all says "5 speed".

Anyways, I went ahead for the aluminum/leather N125-V8-170F for $95 shipped. I like the "lever" type of this knob and it seems to look fatter and substantial/"weighted" looking, over the stock 6MT knob. It would also blend well with the aluminum/black round top Commander knob, as well as the black leatherette interior.

The black Buddy Club Type A catches my fancy. Delrin hybrid look and Made in Japan. Found a Black Limited Edition for only $44 shipped (BC08-TASK10125WB).

Seriously thinking about a M1 Abrams in Championship Gold one from TWM, but I've no idea why. The contrast, I guess.

What is that above your climate control knobs?

That's the little clock that comes with the base model sport mt

Nice Blingy gold shift knob...now that will surely stand out inside and middle of the interior. Like some mystical ball with mysterious powers.

LOL! That's what I think I like about it. All black interior and - BAM! - gold shift knob right in the middle

 

[furiousbob]

Joyfast tall. Love it to death.

But they're $130...

As much as I love ball knobs, especially the TWM's, that's a lot to ask for. Then again... maybe its not. Its so shiny!

Sweet, just need to source the parts then. I was poking around and found this:
MAZDA-3-5-6-RX8-4-5LEATHER-VIP-BLUE-LED-AUTOMATIC-SHIFT-SHIFTER
Not sure about blue LED - car is soul red with the black interior - but I kinda like the concept.

I am considering getting this item but I am worried about fitment. The OEM knob is M10 x 1.25 and this one says M8. I have never replaced a shifter knob before and am worried that if it doesnt fit, I might be SOL with the return. Their ebay "will it fit" calculator says its good though. Second opinions?

All I can suggest is, pull off your shifter and measure it before you buy anything.

They have a white LED color too, this looks awesome actually to me but I would think you would need something to tie it in with the rest of the car rather than just having one LED strip inside...IDK. I wonder how heavy it is I already got the weighted leather option that several other own and it is great.

It won't fit. M10 means its a 10 millimeter diameter thread. M8 means its an 8 millimeter diameter thread. 1.25 is the thread pitch/width (1.25 millimeters per thread). both values have to match for it to fit if the new knob is threaded.

Have a 2012 Mazda 3 rental as my 6 is getting the recall work done on the tank.

Got to shift and what do I find??? Doesn't this knob look familiar?



I mean, why wouldnt they change the shift knob for their new flagship sedan??

 

[black07]

For future reference, the auto shift knob is M8x1.25.

 

[solrac3martinez]

I got this for my miata but decided it would work better on the 6
