Yes, FJ has cool shifter handle, but I'm not sure how it will looks in 4Runner interior.

Funny you just started this thread, I just purchased a 2006 Lexus GS430 shift knob, with charcoal leather along with a dark gray wood grain in the middle which matches the interior of my 2006 T4R Sport Edition

Got it through ebay for $40, I was looking for a Lexus GX470 shift knob, but those were too pricey. This shift knob is not long enough though to cover the narrow portion where to screw the shift knob portion. If you look at the second picture you will notice it slightly, where the shift knob ends on the shifter. It doesn't look bad at all though and is hardly noticable. Still has the stock look to it at any angle. I tend to drive with my right hand on the knob and this feels far superior than the plastic rubber shift knob that it comes with.

I'd like to know how to make a manual shift knob work too. I did the same thing and bought one (Momo) and now I'm trying to figure out if I wasted $70

u could wrap the shaft with electrical tape...and twist the shift knob onto it to keep it from bunchin up...some knobs...like mine...come with plastic inserts...and screws...but i have an "8 ball"...i have a 5spd...so it doesnt look retarded...
