Hi All,
Does anybody know where I can be the M shifter and M brake handle (perforated leather) in the UK? I have done a fair bit of searching and found only the shifter. Thanks. |

Got mine from ebay.de as a "kit" - http://stores.ebay.de/BMW-Autohaus-B...QQftidZ2QQtZkm
What I didn't realise was that as the M-Knob included the gaitor, the LHD version doesn't fit the RHD. What can I say? I ordered it before I got the car... Luckily, with a bit of slicing, the knob comes off the gaitor and fits in place of the stock knob. Edit: Useful German Words: Schaltknauf - gear knob Leder Manschette - Leather Gaitor Handbremsgriff - Handbrake Grip Auspuffblende - Exhaust Tip

These guys are great for BMW parts. They phone you back to discuss exactly the part you need and give a discount because you contact them via email! They've been brilliant for me in the past: http://www.cotswoldstore.com/PartsRequest.aspx

Reference to a teabag advert. You're either
1) Too young 2) Too posh to use teabags 2i) ...because you use loose tea 2ii) ...because you have someone else do it for you. ![]() Anyway. The difference between perforated leather and normal leather is that perforated leather has perforations on it and the normal leather, doesn't. The perforated leather is what they have on the M-Sport Steering wheel and gear knob, and the M-Sport handbrake grip. Hope that helps.
