Hi all

Don't mind if it's second hAnd, if brand new could anyone link me in the right direction for the best price, I've had enough of the standard knob lol

I got mine from here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-BMW-Six-Speed-Leather-Manual-M-Tech-Gear-knob-/122509374379?hash=item1c8620b3ab

It's about the only mod I've done, I find the slightly heavier and shorter feel excellent.

Thanks Lewis. Cheapest price I've found, same part number as the others too - ordered now! Thanks to all who contributed!
 
You're welcome Ryan. I hope it arrives quickly. When you go to take the original knob off, put it into second and with a hard pull and tug it should come off fairly easily....... I'm sure there is also a joke in there somewhere! :thumbsup:

Thanks again Lewis! Haha if I need any help or have any issues I'll let you know as you sound like an expert in the field!

Hi LewisB does the gear knob illuminate red , when you turn on the headlights ?
 
No, not this one. I think it's the F10 that illuminates.

If you do a search on the Forum I'm sure some others have made that mod. :thumbsup:
 
No problem MrT. I've also just had my gearbox oil changed, I feel it does make a difference.

Cheers, I wasn't going to modify mine but here I am with a whippy, some BMW valve caps (but they got nicked last week) and now a ZHP on order!

Where will it all end. :lol:

Interesting about the gearbox oil change; mine is due a service soon so I may opt for that as well (and maybe the diff oil too) - I'm getting carried away again!
