Does anyone have experience with the BFI DSG shift knob? I know people who have them on their manual models have pretty good things to say about them. Given the price, would any of you say getting one for a DSG model is worth it given I really only have to switch gears once or twice?

My brother has one and I’m not sure if I like it. Yeah, looks way better than stock, but install was such a PITA

I've been using one for over a year and a half now. love it! Makes the car "feel" much more premium.

I’ve had one in my Eos since May ‘17 and my ex had one in her GTI. I’m personally not a fan, but it was cheaper than OEM when my stock one broke. My stock was also a side button which is the worst looking shift knob VW ever made lol. About a 15 min install, make sure to use loctite or the set screws will keep backing out.
