Default JDM Bubble Shift ****

Ok guys, I have the JDM Seiko bubble shift **** (you can eBay search it) it's the long version.
But it does not fit my car.

Does anyone know the Club Lexus user who has this? he has takata green Volks te37 and on a white IS, He also has a carbon fiber lip and seats in his car. I'm looking for his name so I can ask how he got his on.

I think the oem **** is 5/16 and the new **** fits 10/12 mm by 1.25. I have been to lowes already and none of the nipples would fit it and I could not find a suggestion. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I don't know what size or pattern the oem **** is, but I don't think it's 10 or 12 by 1.25 because that's what my bubble shifter threads are and it's too big to thread on the IS350
