Construction & Design

Each Billetworkz shift knob is meticulously crafted from 6061 aluminum, a material known for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. The knob is CNC-machined to exacting tolerances, ensuring a perfect fit and smooth finish. After machining, it undergoes a mirror polishing process that enhances its visual appeal and prepares the surface for anodizing.

The anodizing is applied by hand using an intensive technique that results in a vibrant, durable finish resistant to scratches and fading. This process not only elevates the knob’s aesthetics but also protects it from the rigors of daily use, ensuring it remains a standout feature in your Scion tC’s interior for years to come.

Installation of the Billetworkz Cosmic Space shift knob is straightforward and requires no modifications. It is designed as a direct replacement for the OEM shift knob on 2005–2012 Scion tC models, maintaining compatibility with the factory large reverse lockout system. Simply remove the factory knob and thread on the Billetworkz unit for a secure, precise fit.

This makes it an ideal upgrade for enthusiasts who want to enhance their vehicle’s interior feel and appearance without complicated installation procedures or additional parts.
