Help Me Choose

Just ordered my new 2013 MINI Cooper S Hardtop (Eclipse Grey with Black roof/mirrors) last week. Been looking around for the best shift ***** to replace the stock one with, here is what I can up with:

A.
http://leatherz.com/Merchant5/mercha...ory_Code=***** with a Plain 6 Speed Insert
This is the favorite as of now but I do not know if it is compatible with my MINI as it is a BMW shift ****. Does anybody know if it is?

B.
http://www.andysautosport.com/mini/2...o00247838.html

C.
http://www.andysautosport.com/mini/2...i00000596.html

Also would consider any alternative options in regards to weighted shift ***** I can look at. Basically looking for a dark (Black/Gray/Carbon Fiber/Etc), weighted shift ****.

Congradulations on ordering your new Mini! You should go with your favorite, but if that does turn out to be incompatible my pick would be option B.

Out of the ones you selected I would go with #2. So Momo does not know if that **** works on Minis?

+1 for both those vendors. they both have much nicer shift ***** than the three you showed. Well that is my humble opinion and .02 cents.

Thanks for the advice. I took a look and I can't say I am a huge fan of the designs. I do not want wood (doesn't match any of the rest of the interior) and I do not want an extremely round shift ****. So still kind of stuck at this point.

So I am back to square one :-(

If anyone has any other weighted shift ***** I should consider please feel free to point me in the right direction.
