Looks nice! I put a polished Voodoo in my P5 that I had laying around the house from my Miata (which I put an engraved Voodoo in). I like the polished because it matches the polished brake button and steering wheel logo, but the satin matches the dash. Think both looks nice, just a taste thing. Good thing for you though is you won't have the polish the satin every other month to keep it looking nice

i really wish voodoo made an e-brake handle that fits the pro so i could match it up. maybe someday.

i used to have a silver washer at the base of the **** to match the e-brake button but then decided to just rip that ring out of the boot and zip-tie the boot right to the collar of the ****.

of course, you're the one that convinced me to get the voodoo.

i couldn't get the shift boot to look as clean at the top though.

What thread size did you order? And whom did you get the engraving done thru? I have been trying to get ahold of Knobmeister, but they won't return emails....

Thanks...

Alcholoday: can you take a close up of the shift boot? I want to see how that looks...

grim013:

the thread size is the same as on the miata. as such, you can order through any miata distributor that carries the *****.

also, that thread collar you linked to will NOT work with the magnum *****, only the standard size *****. (which have a smaller neck) the larger end on the collar has the same diameter as the magnum ****, so it would be pointless anyway.

So your saying definatly go with a Magnum ****? Or is it just a matter of preference...

simply a matter of preference. the stadard **** is slightly smaller, and you can use the trim ring. (which in my opinion looks great with a black ****) the magnum **** is a little bigger, and gives a slightly better feel in your hand. (again, only my opinion) whichever one you go with, you will NOT be dissapointed.

The magnum doesn't make it look like you have a damn snowglobe on there or anything does it?

not at all. the standard **** is 1-7/8 inches and the magnum is 2 inches. it doesn't sound like much, but your hand will notice a difference.
