Let's talk Knobs.... PDK & Manual knobs of course

[71eh]

Swapped out the stock PDK shifter/selector with the GT4/Spyder one w/ the black leather book. It requires an addition piece of trim for the hazard/door lock switches. The GT4/Spyder selector is slightly shorted than the stock unit. These parts can be ordered by your local Porsche dealers parts dept via the following part numbers:

Selector Lever Black: 982-713-120-8YR
Trim Cover Plate: 991-553-651-01-A05

Awesome! I just ordered my GT4rs pdk shifter for my 718 yesterday!

Share any reflections on it? How does it feel/shift?

The GT4 RS shifter feels better, shifting feels crisper and the knob is lower. I can now rest my arm on the console cover with my hand on the shifter. It’s a triple win. Oh — and it looks much better than the OEM shifter.

I've just been on Sport Shifters and here is what I specked:

Cilinder Custom shift knob
Fitment: Porsche 991/981/992/982/718
2. Color & finish Top Coin: Black - Brushed
3. Color & Finish Rod: Black - Brushed
4. Custom engraving: None
5. Upholstery: Alcantara Black (9040)
6. Shift pattern: No engraving
7. Color shift pattern: Silver (machined metal/non-painted)
8. Additional front stitching: Red
9. Weight: Heavy (400-500 grams) Gran Turismo

I did advise them since I didn't spec a shift pattern (#6) I don't require a color shift pattern (#7). Also do folks here think the weight is TOO heavy??? BTW, this is for a 2016 GT4.
