UUC Motorwerks Stainless Shift Knob and E-Brake Handle
#1
![Default](https://www.audiworld.com/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Bought a UUC Shift **** and e-brake handle off Craigslist.
The UUC "Rob ****" RK2 is supposed to be hard to find for S4 as they are no longer manufactured. Not sure about e-brake handle install so it will have to wait.
**** is a hefty 20.39oz
Only drove around the block so far, but shifter feels good with the weighted throws.
I expected the **** to be threaded with the correct Audi thread pattern, but it secures with a hex lug. I suspect I got the universal fit unit and not the rare Audi threaded one.

But the unit is firmly attached and fits well - I'm very happy with it so far.

Besides being much heavier than stock, it's a bit slimmer at 2 inch diameter and a little taller at about 3 inches. I really like the feel so far...
Any one have any idea how to go about swapping the e-brake handle? Instructions or DIY write-up? TIA

Just installed the e-brake handle. The unit appears to be non-model specific. Due to the shape at the base of the factory handle and the shape of the UUC unit, I had to improvise.
I took a cutting from the collar of an old black leather jacket I'd been saving for scrap and fashioned a trim piece to meld the new handle with the e-brake.
Pretty proud of myself on this one as I think it looks factory.

Put some miles on the **** today - very happy with the throws and feel in the hand.
