Shifter knobs-any aftermarket?

I having a helluva time trying to get a different knob for my SS 6-speed.. I would like to get a direct fit, not some "universal" fit.

I'm thinking of the cue ball or black ball, something similar the Hurst knob. But the Hurst knob only fits on their shaft. Don't want the Hurst short shifter just yet.

Anyone out there know any aftermarket manual shifter knobs for 10-11 Camaros? Tremec's website is "under construction" in perpetuity.

Thanks.

you'll need to buy an adapter since the factory knob is pushed on rather than threaded.

So you are trying to keep the stock shifter but want the different knob?

I also have the retro from MGW and it looks great. There are two ways to install it. They suggest you cut the factory shift which the factory knob is pressed on to. I did not cut mine which sit's a little higher, I prefer it being up higher anyway. Great look and you can do the whole thing in less than 30 minutes from your drivers seat.
