Question ES300 Shifter

Anyone find nice replacements for the shifter on an automatic ES300? I've had a hard time finding one since it's wrapped in leather all the way down...can't just replace the little top part.

I'm thinkin about something all 007 lookin with the button on the top of the stick, not the side...that'd be pimp...but at this point, anything without worn leather would do.

razo makes an automatic shifter w/ overdrive that looks really cool. think fighter jet "stick." it's not a "t-shifter" like the stock one. it's like an old school videogame joystick. comes in either black/chrome, or carbonfiber/chrome, about $149. if i find their catalog i will scan a pic.

Cool nothin like fake wood...hehe

all I did was buy that $10 slip on steering wheel grip...
the one that's at discount auto, wal-mart, k-mart...
black grip sections, with fake..i mean, "similuated" wood finish between the grips.

Looks pimp as hell, but one year later, time to get a new one.
Plastic border is starting to crack and fall off.

Hellz yeah...rockin the grunge lex...
luxury car...with discount add-ons!

I really like the looks of that shift ****, but at the same time it would look kinda out of place in an ES interior, imho. Then again, if you buy an aluminium trim kit for the ES interior (does one exist?) it would look pretty good.

i believe that little chrome button on the top of the shifter is the o/d button. as for being out of place, just redo your wood panels and you'll be kinda alright.

I think this **** would fit perfectally in our car. Although the carbon fiber version looks good, the wood and chrome one would fit wit the car.
