Great product!
Over the weekend my button snapped. Did some searching and found this aftermarket replacement from a brand I actually trust, and at a much cheaper price than any of the chain auto parts stores. Perfect fitment and easy install on my 2005 Honda Accord.
Simply had to remove 2 screws from the front of the knob, pop off the side piece, take out all the broken plastic, use a little grease on the sides, then install the new button and spring and put it back together. YouTube videos helped!
Can't comment on longevity, as Ive had it installed for a few hours as of this review.
My wife had drove my 2004 Accord one day and the button broke off. I was able to stick my thumb in the hole for a little while until the inner portion broke even further. At this point I had taken off the whole thing and had a bic pen jammed into the shaft to change gears. A couple years later, the mother-in-law needed to borrow it for a few days (it's been months and I might as well sign the title over at this point) and decided to finally fix it because I didnt trust her with my pen. Anyway, this replacement fit great and was easy to install.
A quick youtube search for not being able to put your Honda back into park to be able to remove the key from the ignition reveals this simple fix for your vehicle. Works great, and my kids were able to do the replacement when I was stuck at work. Originally thought it was a bad transmission linkage, etc. but it was the crappy rubber in the button construction that led to a vehicle that could have been stolen easily. Pushing the button in by hand doesn't solve the problem due to the spring action in the handle. Highly recommend this low cost solution for the crappy rubber design of the OEM vehicle design.
I ordered this for my retired parents who drive a 2004 Honda Accord. That piece on their shift just one broke off, so they were unable to drive it until the part came in at a chain parts store. Well, that “arrival” day kept getting pushed back from day to day. My father was mad at auto store so I offered to try amazon and get in 2 days. I was a little nervous because I would feel terrible if it wasn’t the right part. 2 days later, the part came in and my dad had no problem installing it. So 5 stars for sure on this one: for quality, price and speed of delivery. Beyond grateful and so are my parents. Oh yeah, and almost $10 cheaper than auto parts store.
We were told by the Honda dealership that the whole gear shift had to be replaced ($2000) because the button broke. Not so!! We bought this button & the cover plate, and the lube for inside, followed a YouTube video & it took 10 minutes to install. Even with the lube, the button is very stiff, but I'm sure in time it will loosen up. Yay to spending $30 for the plate and button versus Honda's advise!

Description
Received a note from my brother saying that my shifter knob exploded when he went to take my car to the airport. I didn't believe him. Honda makes some really cheap stuff.... Anyway, after a quick video on the silly thing, I hopped on Amazon and ordered it. Installation was easy with the only slight problem that there was a part of the old button stuck inside (being black I couldn't see it). So for only having used it for 2 days, I give it 5 stars. If it should fail, I'll be sure to update!
Great!!!
I bought a used 2005 Accord Coupe. 4 days home from the dealer and the push button on the shifter fell off. I’m pretty sure it was broken when I bought it because there was a little glue residue.
I bought this item and a little tube of silicone lube. There are a ton of YouTube videos on how to do this simple repair. The only tricky part is getting the left side plate of the shifter off. It’s held in place by two little tabs. You just need to pry them up a little slide the plate off. Put a little line on the new button, set it in place, snap the plate back on and remount the shifter head. The whole process takes less than half an hour and you definitely can do it yourself. The only tools you wil need is a philips and a flat screwdriver.
I finally changed it after years of shifting with my thumb. I forgot how much easier it was. The only reason I did put a new one on was that sometimes people have to use your car and they don't know what to do. Taking apart that section is a pain though, it did not come back together very well but it's holding up.
