Those looking to turn their car into an updated version of K.I.T.T. may want to give Indy-Cator's latest creation some consideration, which manages to spice up an otherwise ordinary shift knob by outfitting it with a built-in LCD. In addition to adding that touch of excess, the knob supposedly "increases driving safety" and even "helps reduce fuel consumption by up to 15 percent," apparently by helping to adapt your driving style. If that sounds like the shift knob you've been waiting for, you can get one of these now in your choice of red or blue for $169.
