Hoping to install a better looking automatic shift knob that fits without modification, from my memory older X5 unit would work but not sure. Any other bmw models?
Want to get one with piano black center and leather on the sides..
You can always change the rod. Almost all of them fit or can be made to fit without issue.
What "thumbs up" really means
You can use a 6 series one ( E64 ) with minor mods... ( mine is "Ruthenium" )

You have to use a bit of McGyver imagination in some cases, You can extract the old rod from the original knob to use in your new BMW knob, Sometimes extending the rod a tad helps lock it in place as well. I chose ACS Carbon to match other bits.
