Interior/Exterior LED shift knobs?

There are quite a few styles to choose from here (http://www.andysautosport.com/bmw/2002_9999_mini_cooper/interior/shift_knobs/). Some ricey, but many other styles as well.

VW ****.

The VW **** is made by Rieger. I installed one in my 01 VR6 Jetta. Best mod ever. I think they came in green, red, and blue. Very classy looking. I wired it to my ashtray. Worked like a charm. As far as retrofitting it to a mini who knows. If someone is keen to experiment, you may be able to find one on vwvortex.com

Yea, I don't love the set screw either, but they told me there was only one and that it held the **** tightly. If that's the case than I could point it towards the dash, and no one would see it. I think I'm going to get it. I'm working on interior touches right now, and this is something just a little different from the pack. I'll post picks once it's in.

I already have the E-Brake handle.

It is a nice touch but be warned, it is alot skinnier than OEM.

Another reason why I'm wanting one of these is that the **** I have now (MINI Madness I think, not sure) is a different finish and does not match.

Now if I could only read German. Maybe someone can try this out? It looks pretty cool and is supposed to help you get better gas mileage. Seriously, they say you will know what gear you are in so you will know if you need to shift gears.

I guess you missed the button in the top right with the American/British flag...
