2004 Corolla Shift Knob Replacement

Hey everyone. I recently got a 2004 Corolla and am in love with it. But the tan interior isn't much of my taste. So I have slowly been adding small things to make it look a little better inside. Right now my problem is with the shift knob itself. The "universal" one I purchased had set screws which when tightened down didn't hold the knob into place. (after jumping on the road and actually shifting it started to just spin)
Does anybody know good knobs that have work well on their car? Or would it be best to find an interior shop and have them redo my OE knob? Or is there an easy way to make set screws work. (most knobs I have found that I like are set screws....)

Thanks for any and all advice!

That shofter knob doesn't look too bad. The one I have is an oem one from a vibe. Black leather with chrome. May be hard to find since it was a low option. Try ebay or amazon to find oem from 10th gen. They look slightly better than 9th gen. I have been wondering if the auto shifter knob from the 10th gen has the same thread pattern as the 9th gen. It most likely does and may work. The beige with nickle plate kind of looks okay and may work with your interor. Imho.
