Looks like it. Why excatly are you going for the that one? Is it because of the looks or the universal adapters?

Very easy to install just undo the oem one
I would go with a shift knob that has threads in it
M8x1 is the thread pitch on the stock knob

I agree. Id get one that threads on and already has the proper size thread. Just so it stays secure.

Tap and die set (metric). Pretty much throw on whatever you fancy

Or you can get a shift knob adapter like I did. 9K Racing has a 12x1.25 to 8x1.25 ones.

I like this and gave me an idea. Why not secure the adapter piece to a smartphone case and make a phone holder out of the shifter. It's at a good angle when in Drive and perfect distance from the arm rest


The knob spins off, lefty loosey. Take it to Lowes's self help hardware section and test fit it.
