New BMW Performance auto shift knob/boot installed
Got a nice package from Tischer the other day, got around to putting everything on today. Installation is really simple and takes under two minutes (three if you don't go to the gym much). Just put the shifter in neutral, then press the button and firmly pull up. It comes right off with no fuss. To get the boot off you just pull up around the edges until it snaps out.
Before Knob and boot off (you can see where the tabs for the boot are) New vs old Installed I'm really liking it so far, the Alacantara feels nice, the leather is smooth, and it looks great with my aluminum trim. When shifting manually I do notice a slight difference compared to stock too. The Performance knob is a little bigger, and while shifting manually it just has a nicer feel compared to stock, it's hard to explain but it's something you do notice. Overall I'm really happy with it, if you have the AT I definitely recommend getting this.

Nice. The alcantara looks really nice on it.
I don't know they made the performance auto shifter look so good, and the 6 speed shifter look so bad. |

I've always liked that auto shifter. So much better than stock. Good move!
