Anyone know if the RSpeed shift **** fits the B&M short shifter?

 

Yes. No.

According to B&M the stock shifter can't be used. The RSpeed shift ****, unless they've changed it since I bougth mine, attaches just like the stock one so it won't work.

 

Although the b&m shifter is threaded, it also accepts the stock ****. So if it fits the stock shifter it should fit the b&m.

 

Haha... ok thanks guys... equal and opposite posts :D

 

The b&m DOES accept the stock ****, at least mine does (2003 MCS) It is threaded to allow std ***** to fit, and it also has the groove and shoulder to fit the stock ****.

One downside: With the stock ****, I find the b&m a tad too stiff (makes the shifter too short.) The **** included with the kit is at the perfect height but it's too light in weight and kinda cheesy.

Ha! I found a chrome skull shifter **** at one of the local auto parts store for $10. Perfect weight, perfect height. Beat the heck out of an $80 Momo. Works like a champ!

 

I stand corrected. I was going by what was said in a product description. Ironically it's one of the reasons I haven't bought a B&M short shifter. Didn't want to have to change *****. I like my ****. It's almost a part of me.

 

So the RSpeed shift ***** work with the stock shifter right? This is what it says on the RSpeed site:

"With the correct BMW insert" is my concern...

 

Just to let you guys know... The RSpeed site does not have a typo... it really only weighs .32 oz., being that it's made of aluminum. I think I'm going to go with the Whalen or UUC since they both hover around 18 oz.
