Shift "T-handle" replacement??

[Russell]

I would like to replace my wood T-handle with something different - like a single wood knob. Jist to be obvious, my 95 525i is an automatic. What are my alternatives, if any?
Thanks,

[Phil M]

Thanks for the link. However it looks like several ideas on what to do replace the shift knob on my 95 525i atuomatic. I am still in teh research stage of this potential project.

Has anyone written up on the exact parts needed, procedure and best source for the parts? I would prefer bolt on BMW parts that did not need to be modified. I would hate to order parts, take it apart and find that I had the wrong part(s) or need to have something modified as my 525i is a daily driver.

Thanks for any advice.

The t-bar handle on my needs replacing - it's some sort of plastic thingy and I wouldn't mind getting a wooden handle along with the wooden surround - does any of the Aussie forum members know of any places here in Oz that have them?
