M Performance 6 Speed Knob

Recommended Posts

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.

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.

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) :D 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.
