I bought if from BMW and its for an M5. The gaiter comes with it which needs altering to fit the Z4 as per this thread from a while ago ..

Alternatively you can get an unlit version of the same shape for less without the gaiter (which doesn't need to be replaced). Commonly known as a ZHP knob. First time I ever saw it was in the e46 330Ci Clubsport.

I don't know why BMW didn't fit something like that to the Z4 in the first place! :(

My 325ti Sport Compact came with a ZHP as standard! :lol:

Well that answers my question, I did wonder if this was different to the ZHP (other the lit/unlit) thanks for clearing that up. :thumbsup:
