2001-2002 shifter knobs

[SurfSnake]

Is there anyway I can install a 2001 shifter knob in my 97 GTS or do I have to change the whole shifter assembly?

thanks

A newer knob with thread right on. But I have to ask...why? I couldn't wait to get the knob off my '00. I went with an MGW gripper. The newer car knob is just too long for my taste.

I've got the stock shift knob off 2001 gts, replaced with mgw custom knob. The stock shifter is to long. If you want it, send me an email and I will send it to you.

Thank you for the kind offer. But I think I will take everyones advice and order the MGW knob.
