there will be a manual along with the shifter but i can post the install pics once confirmed it all works

Guys,

I was checking out my shifter stalk on the weekend, thinking I might attempt cutting it,
following the recommendation on the website to remove 1&1/4 inches.

What I noticed was that there is a black ring that stops the new shifter sitting all the way down,
so I got scared and stopped.

Roger said I need to remove it but not sure how ?

schulrog · 11-01-2010, 04:09 AM

take a pair of pliers and pull it off or use a wire cutter and snip it off

that's what i did

BimmerRob · 11-01-2010, 06:34 PM

ETA on the shifters?

schulrog · 11-02-2010, 04:29 AM

patience gentlemen

they are coming... around 6 days and i'll have the first set to do testing... i need someone in the US that's willing to do test fitting and take pics etc.

sk8board511 · 11-03-2010, 06:02 PM

ill do it the only question i have is does it work like the joystick it is or does it move like the regular automatic shifter?

1QuikWS6 · 11-03-2010, 06:03 PM

Moves just as regular shifter - just has the neat lighted indicators on the knob

sk8board511 · 11-03-2010, 06:20 PM

damn was hoping for a second that it would be the joystick, i guess i cant have everything lol im going to have to say count me out, that is unless they can make it like the joystick

sk8board511 · 11-03-2010, 11:36 PM

Screw I'll do it, just driving home from work and looked down and it just looked unfinished. IM IN!!!!!

sexymexy · 11-04-2010, 07:52 PM

my fella sk8board511 at the begging of this GB we gave a price to eliminate window shoppers, knowing that I hoppe everyone is SERIOUS about this mod and will honor their word. So i expect that you are Really "IN" this time.

Snootch · 11-06-2010, 06:48 AM

Schulrog, Looking at my shifter, I would like to get the DCT boot and baseplate instead of having to get the boot sewn onto the knob. Thos parts will be available, correct?

OEM BMW Performance shifter is like 150 bucks so this is a good deal considering work invovled to make it work. Let's hope it's well done and won't throw codes a year from now.

sk8board511 · 11-06-2010, 09:43 AM

yes i am definitely in on this, one thing id like to know is would it be possible to get a manual boot sewn onto the shifter to eliminate the gear indicator and the base plate?

Well on the new baseplate there would be no gear indicator. The manual boot would work too though I imagine.

1QuikWS6 · 11-08-2010, 01:20 AM

Well, it looks like I'm gonna have to bow outta this one - back when this started & I signed up in the beginning of August; I assumed it would have gone thru by end of September/October at latest.

I simply have more important places for my $$ to go by end of year than car mods - like payin off our condo in MB, Carribean vacation, & hefty tuition payment for the last kid in college.

Hope someone else signs up and this goes thru for ya...

Simonbkk · 11-08-2010, 03:45 AM

I can fill the gap for the GB, I need to change to RHD shifter with baseplate.

My LHD shifter I bought and have not installed from Roger is also now for sale, it has my leather boot already stitched in, you can see pic from my previous post on this thread.

Brand new including wiring harness.

PM me if interested

schulrog · 11-08-2010, 05:21 AM

no problem at all buddy. priorities change over time and nobody will hold it against you.

1QuikWS6 · 11-08-2010, 06:14 AM

I still want to get one of these - just have to wait till next year and miss out on the $50 savings

sk8board511 · 11-08-2010, 12:33 PM

I'm still all for it just need to know if I can get the manual shift boot on it

sk8board511 · 11-08-2010, 05:43 PM

What's the time frame on these this thread has been up for a while
