My car is finally at the dealers. I just dropped off the wheels/tires, got my 'BMW' cellphone activated, and am hoping to get the UUC short shift kit overnight so the dealer can install it tomorrow. They've already installed the wood shifter and ebrake and they look great. I'll post pic's soon.

I looked at the I drive knob on their website and personally I think it looks awkward. They want it too look like a rim or something??? I would rather have the I drive knob in the woodtrim! But hey, I'm a woody hehehe

Emergency brake?!
Never heard it called that before. Is that for if you want to create an emergency? Pull it up while doing 160?
I've always known it as the hand brake. Thanks for the answer anyway.
