Dan K Posted August 15, 2004 Report Share Posted August 15, 2004 Well i got around to installing my new CTS shift knob on my 96 Seville. It works great and i think adds a nice touch from the golf club style shifter that used to be in there. Hope you guys like Thanks Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ken's caddy Posted August 15, 2004 Report Share Posted August 15, 2004 Does CTS knob install onto the the '96/'97 Sevilles with any problems? Is it as easy as removing the "C" clip from th knob and intalling the new CTS knob, then replacing the "C" clip? Let us know!! Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it as easy as removing the "C" clip from th knob and intalling the new CTS knob, then replacing the "C" clip? Let us know!! Ken There are some modifications that needed to be done. Like changing the key-way and the height of the knob. You also need to drill two very small holes for the old clip to hold it in. It was a little bit of work but as you can see it can be done and it works like it was made for the car. If anyone wants to try this and has questions please let me know i will be glad to help.

Dan K Posted August 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2004 Did you also install a different stereo? Max Yes that is a different radio, It is a CD player off of a 99 deville. This however was a lot more complicated to get to work than the shift knob. as you can see i like to do things that people say can not be done and will not work LOL.

Bentham Posted August 16, 2004 Report Share Posted August 16, 2004 real nice job! I've never been too impressed with my shifter either.. I painted it black, and although it looks a little nicer, I would still like a change. You think I could modify a wood shift knob from a 99 Seville and put it in place of my '93? any advice would be great! -Eric Eric 93 Cad Seville 100K 95 Chev Blazer 143K [garaged summers] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't say you can't do it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan K Posted August 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2004 I bought it on Ebay. I believe it was off a CTS 03 automatic. I figured I would give it a try. With a little work it turned out real nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
