wood shifter before and after
This is for all the manual 240D drivers and the ones who converted their 300Ds to manual. The finish is great and it feels good in your hand. Much better looking than the plastic one.

Yeah that's soon to be gone. It's an auxillery input for the factory deck. It allows me to listen to my iPod but of course there is more coming. Check out the audio / video forum for the 2 amp install.

you might need the gear position map if you have the memory of a fish

Where'd the wood knob come from?

It came from a vendor on Ebay. I think he is located in England. Feels much better than the original knob and looks way better.

It looks good although the laquered wood doesn't have as much grip when doing all of those heel toe downshifts in the 240D.

I like the wood knob.
Looks like you and I have twin 240's, although my interior is black.
