You're correct that was an Infinity M45, I was at the car show and took that pic.....forgot. That's not the knob I'm referring to though, just a pic of a hot control console. Need another control knob......like a chrome stereo knob..........

SAME QUESTION. Was just talking to a parts guy and he said they were easy to take off Just buy something with the same shaft width and it's on and poppin'. Looking for a SLENDER dail of some sort. But the leather would be cool too, that's the one I saw on a 2006 I think. This is an AUDI piece!!!!!!!!!!!

My Ride: 2004 545i / Orient Blue (I think) / Tan int / 116's Wheels / ... my favorite option, the HEATED steering wheel!
Previous cars retired:
2006 Corvette Z51, 2002 Corvette Coupe, 2002 Mustang, 1997 Maxima, 1994 Camry, 1990 Supra
None, and I mean none compare to this 545i. The 06 Corvette was faster, but not by much...
65 bucks for a knob...
Unfrigginbelievable

Looks like it will have rubber or leather around the perimeter to provide extra grip.

That's it! 
I don't know about it being heavier but maybe the M5 knob would be something you would like it's a brushed aluminum look ( i don't think they make anything in chrome ) I purchased one but then ended up selling it since i didn't like it. should cost around $65.00.
