That is a great, but simple mod I would have already done on my car, if it was steptronic. (along with the SMG paddle shifters)

has anyone here made the move and completed the mod that Fred has done. I have been thinking about it but have been getting much mixed reviews. What do you all think and if anyone who has completed it, please post pics, thanks.

Pictures below are from my530i's hot ride...

===========================

Your e60 now looks SMG M5 cool!!! But tell me, how did you handle your Parking Lock release button on your old steptronic shifter to your new SMG M5 shifter that don't have one?

Did you lock it out, and by pass your park release function somehow from your steptronic transmission?

Thanks in Advance.
