which razo knob are you looking for? there are 3-4 that various VX owners have used
i think the one that has no button (you depress the whole thing to disengage the shift lock) is the RA94

I have tried just about every Razo shifter, including the universal ones, that work with the VX, and was only happy with one. Small, aluminum and c/f press down shift type. The one to avoid is the joystick, flight stick looking one. Its was noisy and rattled like a SOB. Sorry I dont have any other info for ya.... simply dont have the time here at work to look up any models, heh.
EDIT:
Foubd a pic, although bad lighting.... avoid the chrome one pictured left. Thats the flight stick one....

The one on the right is fine for simple standardshift types, like our FWD shifter. Perhaps someone else here has a pic of the press down shift knob....

i dont know about the razo one, i got one similar to it from autotechnica (ordered thru summit racing) that presses down, ive had a couple of small problems with it
1. collar was too small to fit over shaft... so i bored it out
2. had a round collar meeting up to square cover over shaft.... so i removed the square cover
3. had a round hole coming out of the square cover's slot, looked awkard (and shaft was unfinished).. so i put a shift boot over the shifter
i think this one was specific to my VX/install
the shiftlock release wouldnt come up all the way sometimes, so i had to rig up a spring in there to pull the release out all the way
im in philly so if you did order and run into problems, i could probably meet up with u and help you out
