I'm thinking of getting a different shift ****. Besides the factory color leather *****, what are the other options for MINI? MOMO offers many designs and seems to be quite popular in general. Whalen appears to be the choice for BMW and MINI enthusiasts.
Has anyone replaced the shift ****? Pictures would be great! :smile:

I have the MOMO shift ****, can't remember the model but, its the all leather one and, it fit fine on my stock shifter. Got it from Out Motoring for $49.95. Fits my hand much better for more positive shifts and not cold in winter or hot in summer. Took about 5 min. to make the swap.

That shift **** is one of the best bits of "irony" I've seen in a while. I thought lithium was supposed to be used to curb manic moods, not instill them!
That said, I'm sure yours is a better treatment for depression than the pharmacy's version, any day.
Cheers!

How is the MOMO **** secured onto the shaft?
Besides Whalen, I also like MOMO SPHERE in blue to match the blue interior of the car. :smile:

I'm a Whalen enthusiast since last September.
A little small **** but it's just my palm size.
Plus, it's much heavier so that you can enjoy different shift feeling and I love it!
