    X5 shifter

    Just installed my X5 shift lever I ordered from rmeuro. They claimed it was the last one in the us, and it took over a week to get it to my box.



    Previous z3 1.9:





    Comparison:





    Neutral:





    Top first:





    Top second, a little ridiculous, modified selector rod still sometimes grins.




    Overall it feels great, and shorter than my 1.9. I wouldnt recommend it if you have worn shifter bushings.

    I have this in my S50 car. My selector rod is custom though since it's got the 260 trans. I love this shifter!

    (Is the 1.9 for sale? A friend is interested)

      I modified the selector rod. No issues so far. I'm going to run this one a couple weeks and make my verdict on selling the 1.9
