WTB: Various parts

Recommended Posts

I'm just about to start work on my car and have bought a new getrag gearbox to go in it.

The auction I bought it off the guy was a little shady on what wasnt there, so have a few bits to get.

I'm looking for the following parts

Interior pieces

Trim

Shifter

Leather Boot

as well as looking for advice on the best value for money short shifter.

Also do auto gearbox mounts matchup to manual boxes ?

hey gear box mounts from autos dont mount up, you will have to get manual ones, and just go to a wreckers? i got my shifter boot for 20 bucks for a new leather one (in new cond)

and the middle consol for a manual is the same as an auto but you probably know that.

thanks, oh thats good. Anyone got ideas on pricing for a E36 shift knob ? I think someone said $50.

Any idea on costing for gearbox mounts, i was guessnig around about $70 for a pair wouldnt it be

e36 gknobs look good, but they arent cheap from the stealer, i got a leather one with m logo, cost me $120... but i needed something asap and that was the only thing i could get overnight.

everyone prety much gets the bmw short shifters and just replaces some of the bushings. As for which lever to get, I reckon it depends on how what condition your box is in. Mine is getting pretty old so I got a 1.9 Z3 and I'm glad I didn't go any shorter. But if you box shifts real good then you could go shorter pretty easily.
