well my z3 1.9l shifter snapped in half last week. atleast i believe thats the one it was. i dont remember since i installed it a few years ago. but i bought a z4 2.5l lever that im running now and im not too happy with it. i dont really like the oem lever design at all. the bottom part is an aluminum rod with the top part being a shell that wraps around the rubber insulation of the bottom rod. i can grab the two halfs and flex them in different directions. i know its probably there for vibration dampening, but id prefer a solid rod like the ebay shift levers. only problem is ive heard of people having trouble with the cup the ball sits in. so my question is for people who have tried using just the lever in the stock plastic cup that sits in the carrier. is the ball on the ebay levers the same size as on the oem levers?
for example one like this but throwing away the blue cup:
