White shifter *****

Does anybody know where I can find two original white ***** like these? My truck is a 4x4. I would rather find originals rather than aftermarket that don't resemble the originals at all.

I don't know where you can find any other than bone yards and maybe a member here. I sold a white t-case **** a while back and regretted it. So I decided to paint a black one I had and it turned out really good. If you really want white I would suggest painting what you have. Just a thought.

May I ask what paint you used? The paints I have tried are either too thick or just want to run rather than dry. I would like to find a paint that would last from the continuous use of changing gears. I wonder if a clear coat might help over the paint?

Probably. It had a lot more solids than regular cheap Krylon spray paint.
