Recommended SSK for e92 328i

ttam · 11-22-2010, 01:42 AM

I have been looking around for a good SSK.
Any recommendations out there?
Should I stick with the BMW SSK or should I go for another brand?

Just get the BMW OEM one. Not sure why you would do anything but.

I've tried the rogue engineering shifter and was not happy. I also tried a shifter from a Z4 and wasn't happy. The BMW performance shifter is best feeling and had the best placement. You can get the whole kit with the new boot and knob, but I just got the lever.

It was positioned too far leftt and forward. It touched the forward part of the center console trim in 1st and 3rd and made contact on the left when reverse was selected. It also loosened up very quickly. The Z4 shifter was extremely short, but the effort was retarded.

Sorry to jack the thread, but can anyone confirm if the OEM SSK will fit a 328xi?
