Alien Shift Knob — Solaris
Free US shipping. Made to order and checked out securely through our Etsy shop, where you pick your options.
Give your shifter a passenger from another planet.
Meet SOLARIS, the big brain alien. Exposed brain, mouth wide open in a scream, deep wrinkles and big black eyes painted by hand. It glows in the dark after a little daylight or a UV flashlight, so at night it lights up your console. No batteries.
The real photos and videos show Solaris in PURPLE: purple by day, glows blue at night.
Choose Your Alien
Every knob is made to order, so you can pick any of the six:
- SOLARIS: the big brain, mouth wide open (shown in the real photos)
- AZOTH: the classic, calm big-eyed visitor
- TRISMEGIS: three eyes, smirking, up to something
- MERCURIUS: the grinning one
- CITRINUS: tongue out, pure fun
- PHOENIX: hands up, mid-cheer
Photos of the other five are previews of the design. They glow the same and get the same hand painted eyes.
Pick Your Glow
Choose the color too. Five glow colors, each made to order:
- GREEN: glows bright green
- YELLOW: soft yellow by day, glows green
- PURPLE: purple by day, glows blue (shown in the real photos)
- ORANGE: orange by day, glows yellow
- WHITE: white by day, glows soft green
Color photos are previews of each filament color.
Made For Your Car
