Some buddies have the aftermarket knobs and they don't fit as well as they should. Thanks for the tips.

Hi Y'all,

I just received my 5-speed conversion parts from Bimmerworld. Perhaps I've overlooked them amongst the other parts, but I don't think a shift boot & knob were included. In any case, I'd prefer to have new parts. What is the best source for a new shift boot and knob? OEM or aftermarket doesn't matter, although I'd appreciate your opinions on aftermarket ergonomic knobs (I'm not inclined to go with brushed aluminum or chrome knobs, though; I'd prefer black).

Thanks in advance,
Shawn D.

bmp design,rocky mountain motorsports etc. have boots for about $40,believe it or not the dealer has a great selection on knobs.get a catalog from the dealer,prices are in it too.bmp, rocky mountain and bavarian also have some but dont get those universal fits like momo,get a factory knob they slip right on!!
