Gear shift knob

Hi there everyone, new to Carpokes. We’ve had an ‘07 987.1 2.7l in the family since 2011. Been a great car and recently decided to drive it more.
Wondering: does anybody out there know where to purchase a five speed shift knob? Would like to remain stocked, but anything in black leather, or with the Porsche logo would work.
Please and thanks!!

Hi SGS,
I have a 718 Cayman so I am not super familiar how your 987 shift knob looks however I am aver the moon pleased with a shift knob I purchased from sportshifters.com. I show the link and the "recipe" I followed below. Note: that the custom engraving upload is a picture of the stock shifter pattern and font. What I like about this is matches the rest of the car perfectly and has the OEM plus look and feel, but the weighted knob adds so much to the feel of the shifter. At the end of the day these are customizable to your likes and ascetic, have a look.

I have put these on my 897.1 Boxster S and current 718 GTS 4.0. They don't creak or come apart like the factory ones did.
