It's not me.
He stole my picture. The one that shows N and D/S on at the same time is not my pic, and it's not the way my kit work.
The picture on the right showing it's in R is my picture.
nice mod, your car looks awsome. How much are you selling your kit and is come with instruction.
Are you also selling shift paddles kits too? How much is the M5 shift knob ? Thank you

With your foot on the brake the shift will travel through P-R-N-D. But once your foot is off the brake, you can't go from N to R.

He still has those too. Order it up. It's great! I took my car into Rallye BMW to see if I could get the iDrive update installed. When the service manager came out to my car and saw the M5 shift knob, he was floored. He called out a few of the service techs to come look. It was classic!
