Dansk Shift Knobs

Has anyone tried the new Dansk repro shift knobs? The photo makes them look pretty nice.
Pelican has them now for $21.50. Hopefully it will kill the early shift knob trade for a while...

Yes, I had to buy a ring to install.
Not sure I like the knob seems a little small.
Might go for a momo instead.

Doesn't look small on the photo but feels small in my hand when I shift.

how does the crush sleeve work? Crush the sleeve and slide the knob on top of it?

Just bought one, came with crush sleeve installed in knob. Is this just press fit? How hard to fit, once it's in, any movement?

just installed on in my car, It does come with a crush sleve instaled, but it is too small so I removed it and installed with a factory sleve, Looks great.

I wish DANSK would make more parts.
I have recently purchased new front control arms and door mechanisms. Quality is great and price reasonable.

I have one, it feels fine. But I didn't like the shiny chrome and clear plastic at first, although it's grown on me.

The originals looked more like this (at least they did in 82) -- but I'm not sure it's worth $100 to get the original look above and beyond the Dansk part:
