If you have 08 e92 and it is working, That means it'll work with mine too.
Please tell me the part number so I can get it asap.
Thanks.

It's not that simple as to getting the wires, connectors and pins. it's going to take some time to connect the proper wire to the correct pins to get them to light up. which I have spent numerous hours with my shop to get it working. I haven't had the chance to finish it off. I didnt use the SMG knob either. so it's going to be very different.

I dunno if anyone really wants to do this DIY, it's going to cost $200+, I'm not trying to push you guys away from doing it, but the shiftknob was bought as a special order with my discount and it was $140 + $60 in wiring(plugs, pins, wires, connectors) + labor from your local shop. I will do my best to type it up but it might take a while. so sit back and believe me I'll post my own thread when it's finally done. I'm sure it'll be a first and I'll be the only weirdo to have done it. haha
