Your shift knob and your steering wheel (along with the pedals) are some of the most important control surfaces in your car. We believe these surfaces should not only look exceptional but perform and function beyond expectations. We offer shift knobs that are Original BMW parts, MOMO from Italy, and other brands that we feel make driving more enjoyable and enhance the technical sophistication that your BMW embodies.
BMW shift knobs are easy to replace. On manual transmission models, the knob is pressed into a groove at the top of the shift lever. It simply needs to be pulled off - place the transmission into 2nd gear and yank hard towards your chest (not your head). 2nd gear offers a better leverage point than anything else. To install the new knob just slide it over the shift lever and press down firmly. You will feel the knob 'snap' into place.
Note that some factory knobs are a one-piece design with the boot. Upgrading your knob may require a new boot as well.
Race German has devoted themselves to providing quality products for late model BMWs that cover both street and track applications. Race German has now grown their catalog to a wide variety of models and products geared towards keeping your car looking and running nice. Over time the stock shift boot degrades and becomes dull and brittle. This can become unsightly especially when trying to get photos of your interior. The downsides to many aftermarket options also cause the boot to either appear out of place, or you have to do custom modification requiring cutting and gluing a piece of fabric to your existing shift boot ring. Race German's OEM style E39 shift boot is made from super soft leather, and made to look like the original. The shift boot also comes pre-attached to a new plastic trim ring all while remaining at an affordable price!
