Depends on what you want. The JCW ones are nice and located here. Guessing you have a manual.

JCW Gear Shift **** 5 Or 6 Speed - Alcantara / Carbon part # 25110403543

Or

JCW Gear Shift **** 5 Or 6 Speed - Leather / Carbon part # 25110396878

http://www.ecstuning.com/Search/SiteSearch/25110396878/




Stock one is here if you just need a new one, they older ones the leather and top center piece can yellow.

MINI Gear Shift **** 6 Speed Leather / Chrome Part # 25117540842

There is also a wooden **** in the classic ball finish that's very nice.

Have it. Love it. Makes me smile every day. $60, too. Price performer. Nice feel, too -- round, smooth, good for throwing gears.

If you want a OEM 6spd I have my old one sitting on the shelf. I upgraded to the JCW. I'd let it go really cheap.
