WTB: late eta shifter arm 25111221053

[SethB]

Hey E30 folks,
I'm looking a late eta shifter arm, PN 25111221053. I've got an 89 325i with a 86-ish getrag 260 swap (was originally an automatic). Whoever did the manual swap used the early plate-style shifter arm, but instead of installing the proper support pad at the back of the arm, decided to zip tie the plate to the support mounting hole. I've got a bunch of Garagistic parts I bought to rebuild the shifter on another car, and would like to use them + upgrade to the later style shifter arm (my trans has the late style clevis). I need the eta-specific arm since it's shorter (237mm) to compensate for the deeper bellhousing on the eta 260 trans.

If you've got the whole shifter assembly, I wouldn't mind picking up the selector rod and associated bits too.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Did you ever find one of these?

Oh man... This is embarrassing; haven't logged on in over a year. Bought a broken down old farmhouse, built a garage to work on the cars, started fixing up the house.... and years go by. AWDBOB, I just recently snagged one off eBay. Actually, I spent some time building a CAD model before I stick it in the car. It's such a slim year/model combo that I can't imagine many of us need them, but if I can get enough interest, I think I'd need to get 30+ made to get the per piece price reasonably low.

Thanks for asking, and sorry for taking so long to reply! With spring coming and some big house projects done, I'm hoping to spend more quality time with the E30 this year.
