Mike6auto and I received an email from Alex at AW Industries. He wants a list of the people who would actually purchase the kit for the E63/E64 (the E90 wiring harness is $75) /shifter (wiring harness with brand, new shifter is $315 for the E90) and he's also looking for a 6 in the Bay Area to be the test fit vehicle. I've also asked Alex if there's a possibility of group buy and I'm waiting to hear from him.

Please let me know if you would actually pay for this upgrade and please let me know if you would be looking for the wiring harness or if you'd be looking for the kit with the shifter.

I already offered my ride as a test vehicle for the retrofit. I'm in San Jose so right in the bay waiting to hear back from him to schedule a meeting

May sound really stupid but it feels better and more natural for shifting... if that makes sense ?
