viclykewhoa Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 are the shift knobs for the ES, GS, LS, SC and RX interchangeable? It seems like they are and I would like to replace the leather one I have in my '99 GS. Does anyone know?
RomyCHA Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 Yes, they are interchangeable. Just twist off, and twist on. But don't buy it from the dealer. It's about $100 from the dealer, there are alot of companies that sell aftermarket knockoffs.
SKperformance Posted March 31, 2006 Posted March 31, 2006 They all screw on but the ES and GS use the same size. The LS RX GX and LX use a larger shifter by about 1 inch. Using the wrong one looks really out of place.

Supercat Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Any suggestions on which after market knobs look and fit right on an 02 GS? After reading how valuable the OEM blackwood ones are, I want to throw on an aftermarket one for every day use. Would "manual" shift knobs work since a shift button isn't used? Is it that eazy to twist the knob on and off?
chuckb Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 ebay has a bunch of oems. I believe they're more like $250 to $300 from the dealer. btw-I have a 06 GS430 shifter in mine...
JonCAGS300 Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Other than at the dealer/salvage, I've never been able to find a shifter for an auto trans in the first generation GS. Are there alternatives?

That looks pretty sharp! I called Sewell Lexus and they quoted me $460 (I think it was actually more). I have the blackwood knob. I've decided to go with a RAZO shifter, Silver model, I found on eBay. I've seen pics of this on other GS's (at CarDomain) and it looks cool. This one's specifically made for A/T gated shifters. I'll post pics once I receive and install it. RAZO Shifter Knob

RAZO Shifter Knob This is for the manual trans, right? I'm looking for the auto trans (94 GS 300, brown). Any ideas?
Supercat Posted October 19, 2006 Posted October 19, 2006 The one I bought will work will work with the A/T with the gated shifter. I s/b getting it soon and will post pics. The 2nd Gen ES and GS shift knobs are interchangeable and these cars can typically take a shift knob for an A/T car since there are no buttons (shift, O/D) on these. I think the one in your 94 GS is interchangeable with the on in a 92-96 ES300. I found this on eBay. 92-96 ES Shifter I'd double check if the part numbers are the same, but if looks like a straight swap. I hope this helps.
Supercat Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Installed the RAZO knob this morning: I don't think it looks better than the original one, but it's a nice swap and doesn't look too aftermarket.
