One word for MY08 owners, BMW seems to have changed the harness around the shifter area, and my tech couldn't find a power source for the back light of the shifter. I'm going back to the shop tomorrow to get it fixed, will report progress.

phattbam · 06-18-2008, 02:36 PM

any updates on this?

Bluesummer · 06-18-2008, 02:49 PM

how much is it for the whole set up?

800renegade · 06-20-2008, 01:31 PM

hello guys.
just installed my M5 knob in black CF.
it looks really good. The Cf is the exact same one as the OEM CF trim. i love it.
i haven't installed the lights yet, until a DIY comes, so for now i just clipped it of the stock tube, you will say this is boring.... but it's awesome... ihope the DIY will come soon.

Thanks Kev. If any of you driving a 2008 335i and are located in SOCAL. My tech would need to borrow your car for the DIY.

I put double sided tape inside and that helps.

I don't understand why you quoted me 3 different times, it just makes you look like an idiot, obviously there isnt a DYI guide out yet for this retro-fit so that is why I am asking people if they have any leads since they have been working with a tech and said they would update on the install...

Bluesummer · 07-02-2008, 08:40 PM

^that is very mature and look smart.

not to mention you kept on asking the same question over and over to keep this tread and project alive. thanks for your effort although i still dont know what DYI is.

Now your just comming out stupid... Did you not understand that I asked multiple times because either
A.) Nobody responded
or
B.) Nobody knew how to; and obviously there were some that have done it so they would be able to chime in.
