Well, as the topic heading implies - i am wondering if the "leather" iDrive knobs are compatible with my '05 E60. I bought the car secondhand, and it has a little ding on it and i'm quite finnicky when it comes to "imperfections" - as i'm sure all of you are!

BTW, before i get flamed on the search function - perhaps someone can enlighten me why when i type the keywords i am looking for, sometimes there are posts that pop up that have nothing to do with my query. I guess i need to refine it somehow.. perhaps you search gurus can elucidate?

yes, the lci idrive will fit your pre lci e60..

when searching, use the "+" symbol to combine words as well as quotation marks to define your search field

here's what I used to search and found this thread (along with a few other ones): "LCI+idrive knob"
