Pursuestar Black Full Leather 5 Speed Manual Shift Knob for BMW 1 3 5 6 Series E30 E32 E34 E36 E38 E39 E46 E53 E60 E63 E83 E84 E90 E91 E92

Outstanding value for the price. Looks very, very nice, feels good, well-weighted, carefully stitched, fits tight and sits straight on my 2006 BMW330i. Time will tell regarding how the leather wears, but at this price I’ll buy another now for a spare.

Really nice knob for the money!!!! Fit is great in my z3, and dimensions are identical to OE. I didn’t have any of the sticky issues that I read in other comments. Time will tell on how well it holds up…but, for $15 it’s hard to beat!

Fits perfectly. Got tired of replacing the stock knob that deteriorates, the chrome that peels away and actually cut my finger a couple times. Takes some strength to pull the OEM knob off. The OEM knob is connected to the leatherish boot and that structure snaps off from the console. Then you surgically disconnect the leather from boot from the bottom of the OEM knob, snap the boot back into place and pop on the new knob. It sits down on top of the boot and holds it in place. Looks great and you wouldn't know it isn't stock.

I was a bit skeptical when making this purchase to replace my aging Z3 aftermarket shift knob. The price was great compared to OEM replacements, so I figured I'd give it a go. It arrived quickly. The knob is exactly as pictured. Not sure the material quality, but it feels leather-like. It fit nicely on the BMW shift rod. It is a bit weighted, so it feels substantial when shifting. Overall, my early impression is very good.

Got this for my E30 and the fit and finish is very nice but the tabs inside are too wide to seat into the groove on the shifter. Worthless.

Shifter fit well and was a good replacement. The clear top had a large a scuff through the middle that took a while to buff out.

We made and designed if you keep in mind the cost. Obviously it will not be as posh as an OEM piece but for 20+ year old car it will do just fine. Ze Jormans are well known for making the most inconceivable parts in Bimmers out of plastic with come special concentration formula just asking for them to disintegrate after a few years and the manual shift knob on my Z3 in no exception. Ever noticed on Bimmers how all the moldings turn rust and all the cowls turn to dust while the same things on Jappies stay new forever? But you can't just pluck some rice burner knob off of Ebay or Amazon and shove it on, Ohno, they conceived an ingenious way of shove-mounting the plastic thing on a steel shift leaver topped with a simple notch that must match the plastic bit inside the knob to prevent it from spinning. This is the one that has all that checked and actually fits decently.

Amazon sent the wrong item: Amazon fulfillment sent the slightly cheaper knob with a metal collar at the bottom rather than the one closest to the OEM knob. I'm returning for a "free" exchange, although Amazon now expects me to drive to a store to return it, which is hardly free. It will take my time and my money (fuel and mileage) to return it. The shift knob itself is OK. It is advertised as leather, and technically it is. The material is ground leather fibers formed into a sheet before being made into an item. The main problem with that is that the material is not nearly as hard wearing as full-grain leather. But, it is also much less expensive. Just expect to replace this much more frequently than the high quality shift knobs.
