ZHP Shiftknob, first mod, done.
Pretty straightforward, I actually ordered an alcantara shift boot but the one I received didn't fit (guess e90 M and non-M have different sizes) so ended up cutting stock boot which I initially didn't want to do.
I was fearing the stock knob removal but it wasn't too bad actually, got it on my second pull, as mentioned in the DIYs, a quick pull up is the best way to go. All in all, pretty happy with the results, shifts are definitely nicer with the weighted/shorter knob. Oh and I didn't bother with getting the lit up zhp knob. Not sure if I want to do spring delete, I don't know what i'm really missing out on...clutch seems ok to me? |

One of the mods that really makes a difference! ZHP shift knob should have been standard.

I never felt the need to put my spring back in. I imagine as long as you have some spring clamp pliers it wouldn't be too hard. I agree it makes the clutch feel much more natural. You can actually feel where it engages as opposed to on/off.
