What size are Cobra shifter threads?

[W30bob]

I'm not liking the stock leather shifter knob in my '04 Cobra, and want to replace it with a Hurst six speed ball in either white or black. But I've only seen the Hurst 6 speed ball advertised for Vettes and Camaro/Firebirds with a thread size of 16mm x 1.50.
Is this the same thread size as the stock Cobra?

Thanks,
bob

The knob for the GM shifter will not fit the Ford shifter. Believe me, I went through hell getting one on my '03 many moons ago. I was determined to get that knob on my '03 and had to make new rod for my MGW handle with the 16x1.5 thread that GM uses. Ford uses a 12x1.75 thread.

You should check with Hurst as I've heard they now make the knob with Ford threads.

How does the stock knob come off?.......just unscrew it?.......

Yeah just turn it counter clockwise and it will screw right off. There on there pretty tight. And stock thread is 12x1.75.
