Default What SC Models Had a Black Shift ****? Other than PB?

I am looking for spare parts for my Pebble Beach SC that regularly wear out (floor mats, shift *****, etc) and was wondering if there are any OTHER SC's that have black shift *****?

I found one on eBay but am wondering if someone might have painted it?

Most SC's I've seen have the typical wood **** in either the light birdseye maple or the dark wood. I have never seen a black wood shift **** until I bought my 2005 SC430 Pebble Beach.

I know some of the sport editions and the hybrids of the Rx have silver and black interior, but their ***** are thinner and longer.

The **** I found was definitely a SC ****. Any ideas?

Here is the link:

Thanks

Didn't that light blue, 04 PB have the black shifter ? The E-bay ad started with the 05 model year.

I asked the guy to rate the condition of the **** from 1-10 he said a 7...not worth $100 for that! Maybe $50...we'll see.

ok. now i'm positive they're standard options in japan. you can even select which color you want for stitching...

i think the pebble beach editions were a way of offering some of the less popular color combinations over here. it's probably not practical economically to offer every combination since it's such a low production model as it is.

by the way, if you're looking for black or red interior parts, i'd try japanese sites. or you might need to find someone who speaks japanese to help you. i think a few people in this forum are fluent. here's their version of ebay...
