This AUTOEXE Nappa Leather Gearknob with Black Stitching is designed for Mazda RX8 Series 1 & Series 2 models (2003–2012), combining premium materials with driver-focused ergonomics to create a more tactile and engaging shift feel.

  • Crafted from genuine Nappa leather with hand-sewn black stitching for a subtle, OEM-plus appearance
  • Compact 42 mm diameter fits naturally in the palm for a secure, comfortable grip
  • Height adjustable from 73 mm to 91 mm, allowing you to fine-tune shift throw and position
  • Weighted to approximately 190 g to deliver a solid, positive shift action
  • Finished with a laser-printed AUTOEXE logo on the top plate as a mark of genuine Japanese quality

You will immediately notice a more precise, satisfying connection to the gearbox, with each shift feeling more deliberate and premium in your 2003–2012 RX8.

If you prefer a sportier accent, consider the matching AUTOEXE Nappa Leather Gearknob with Red Stitching, and pair your chosen knob with the AUTOEXE Sports Steering Wheel (Series 1) or AUTOEXE Sports Steering Wheel (Series 2) for a unified driver-input upgrade.
