The best Honda Civic shift knobs are weighted knobs with an M10x1.5 thread pitch, which fits most manual-transmission Civics. A heavier knob smooths out the Civic's cable shifter feel, and finishes like carbon fiber, delrin, and leather hold up well to daily driving without burning your hand in summer.
Upgrading the Civic Shifter Feel
Civics have one of the best stock shifters in their class, but the factory knob is light plastic — swapping it is the cheapest way to make every drive feel better. The key spec is thread pitch: most Honda and Acura manual shifters use M10x1.5, and many Civic knobs are designed around that. If your Civic has a reverse lockout ring, look for a knob shaped to clear it, and check the product listing for your specific year and model.
What to look for: solid one-piece construction (no wobble), a weight that suits your taste — heavier feels smoother — and a material matched to your climate. Metal knobs look great but get hot; delrin and leather stay comfortable year-round.

Civic Shift Knob FAQ
What thread pitch does my Civic need?
Most manual-transmission Honda Civics use M10x1.5. Always confirm with your specific year and trim before ordering, since some applications differ.
Will a weighted knob work with a reverse lockout?
Many aftermarket knobs are shaped to clear reverse lockout rings, but not all. Check the product page for reverse-lockout compatibility with your year and model.
Does a shift knob change throw length?
No — a knob changes feel and weight, not throw distance. For shorter throws you'd pair it with a short shifter, which we also carry.
Do I need any special tools to install it?
No. Most Civic shift knobs thread on by hand in minutes. If you're switching thread pitch, you'll need the included adapter.
