I went with leatherZ. They make an absolutely fantastic boot for shifter and e brake. I had the M stitching to match the wheel stitching and did it in black alcantra to match the headliner and pillars in the car.
Went with performance knob that uses OEM lighting in the gears with the old school M logo in the lower corner on top of the shifter. Will post a pic this weekend. They are the best but pricy. Gotta pay to play right! I have ha it in the car for 2 years and still looks brand new |

I'm looking to swap the Knob and boots as my next mod as well. Anyone tried the 3D design knob from IND?
I thought the Performance knob from BMW didn't illuminate? Can someone that has it confirm? thx! Last edited by BeemerMeUp; 05-17-2012 at 04:13 PM.. |

Thanks Skins... that makes more sense. Any owners with the 3D knob out there? 3 bills plus for the knob seems expensive, but if it feels the business when rowing the gears, I could see investing in it.

+1 on the BMW Performance knob. Even after installing my Rogue SSK - the stock illuminated knob felt flat. Installation of the BMW perf. knob now gives every gear shift a solid and a better feel.

I have the Rogue SSK and the ZCP knob and find that the knob doesn't stay on very well. It's only when I aggressively shift (launching and shifting from 1st to 2nd) it pops off. Do you find the performance knob to stay on the Rogue SSK very well?

It stays on well IMO. In this photo the Performance shift knob is sitting high and the boot looks like it was put on incorrectly. ??

It has not popped off (yet), even with aggressive driving/shifting. The fit was pretty snug when I installed it; had to put some weight on it to sit flush.

I just installed my ZHP.
It does help with the shifting due to the weight. Helps smoothin up to the shifts! Highly recommended. It was a pain in the butt to remove the stock knob tho, mine was locked in super tight, almost knocked myself out when it came loose. Haha... |
