Shift knob options for the 1M

In my previous car (the STi), I requested a Duracron shift knob because it didn't wear poorly like the standard leather shift knob. In addition, it never got too hot/cold while sitting parked. My Type-R titanium shift knob (while I loved it) always got scalding in the summer and cold as ice in the winter.

Are there any good/clean replacements for the stock shift knob on the 1M? I would prefer a illuminated duracron-like or some other material other than titanium if possible. The leather shift knobs feel so unconnected with the driver experience, while I feel the other harder surfaces connect you better. I guess I just like "feeling" the transmission through the shifter. Any ideas?
