E85 5 speed shifter

Post by Mr Tidy » Mon Mar 11, 2024 12:47 am

I bought this Aliexpress one for my 3 Series in July 2018 for $11.28 and it's still working fine 20,000 miles later - it just isn't weighted.

Yeah, I've been meaning to refresh the warn seats so maybe this is the push I need!
I also need to replace worn seats. Will you buy OEM and have them recovered? I'm debating.....
You can recover them yourself for not much money:

If you ever visit the UK please bring some m-sport covers in your suitcase, you won't need clothes, as you can new clothes in Primark for cheap :rofl:
