M Performance 6 Speed Knob

[IainR 55]

Looking to sell on the knob pictured below. It's got some wear that I've done my best to highlight in the photos. 

Looking to get $80. Would prefer someone local to Wellington as contactless pick-up could be arranged during the lockdown. 

No shifter boot included.

Man, they don't hold up to use very well do they! Not such good work there BMW.

Wait, more importantly, do you have cruise control @IainR ?

The controls are there but I havent tried it yet. 

Is it that important? ? ?

I’m pretty sure that’s not an M Performance part, nor even a BMW part.

There’s not enough ///M badges on it for a start.

I think it's this one, although I've not seen one in person.

@KwS Cheers for the info. I'm very new to the BMW world so had no idea!

That’s an oldie but a goodie from the days when the M hadn’t been stuck in front of the Performance badge.

Looks to be a bit too short to be a smooth action..?

It is very short! I think I may have a SSK kit on the car so although it looked good, I just couldn't get comfortable with it. 

I swapped it out for a 'Weighted Broomstick' part No. 25117896884 which I'm far happier with. I think it actually suits the interior better too.

The factory Msport knob is a leather job with M on it, your cars build sheet is my ones clone (other than the cruise control which is rare)  https://www.mdecoder.com/decode/ps88744

The heavy weight knobs do seem much better, I didnt expect much from the storm motorworks one I just stuck in mine (other than not falling apart like the factory one) but its really improved the gear change feel.
