This Genuine BMW shift knob is about 3/4" shorter than the "standard" shift knobs and is weighted (5.4oz) to give a better, more substantial, shifter feel for the driver. We love the subtle, yet noticeable improvement this makes in the "feel" of gear changes. It's also identical in size/shape/weight to the shift knob that came on the E46 330 ZHP, and is available in either 5 speed or 6 speed gear shift patterns.

Your choice of shift patterns:
+ 5 Speed ZHP Shift knob: BMW Part # 25117896031 (25-11-7-896-031)
+ 6 Speed ZHP Shift knob: BMW Part # 25117896886 (25-11-7-896-886)

BMW ZHP Shift Knob installed in E36 M3

Perhaps best of all, this shift knob fits ALL 1982 and newer manual transmission BMWs. That's right -- this knob can be used on ALL BMWs, 1982 and later. So no matter what model BMW you have -- E30, E36, E46, E90 or E92 or anything else -- this knob will look, work, and feel GREAT. This knob also looks and works great on all 1 series including 128i and 135i.

Note that many newer models have a 1-piece knob + boot. This is standard on most M cars and on some other BMWs. We sell new replacement boots to use with this shift knob, choose the option below if you would like one included with your order (not for E9X M3 models).

This knob was specifically designed and marketed for the E82 / E88 1 Series and the E90/E92 3 Series, BUT it also fits all manual transmission BMWs from 1982 through present. This means this great looking and great feeling shifter knob can be used on almost every BMW (except 1981 and earlier).
