ND Miata Sphere Style Shift Knob - M10x1.25 mm

Miata Sphere Style Shift Knob – M10x1.25

A simple, clean sphere style shift knob designed to let you test your preferred shape and height before committing to an expensive aftermarket option. This model has confirmed fitment on the ND Miata and uses the common M10 x 1.25 mm thread pitch , making it compatible with most other Miatas and many additional vehicles. This design is very, very similar to the billetworkz’s sphere design. Please check out my other shift knob 3D models for other options!

🛠 Print Settings

- Thread: M10 x 1.25 mm (modeled directly into the STL) - Supports: Required for bed adhesion - Orientation: Print upside down for clean internal threads - Tested in: PLA (for fitment testing) Recommended Materials for Long-Term Use

- ABS - ASA - PETG / PET - Nylon PLA is great for test fitting but may soften over time in high cabin temperatures.

🎨 Design & Customization

- Clean cylindrical profile - Minimalist aesthetic - Lightweight and customizable - Great for experimenting with height and diameter before buying an aftermarket knob Bonus: Transparent or translucent filament + different infill patterns (gyroid, cubic, honeycomb, etc.) create unique internal visual effects when light passes through the knob.
