I also found out that oem part number 25117546373 should also fit it is the short shift option from the 545i

The only aftermarket short shifter for the 530i 6spd is from RDSport. I have one installed on my 530 and its much better than stock.
My understanding is the 545 & 550 shifters will not work on 530.

I have the 373 shifter, but i've ordered an 08 550 short shifter (different part #) to see if it's any shorter. it's not here yet, i'll report when it arrives.

which is weird, because the stock lever is the same part # on the 525, 530, and 545. 25 11 7 546 373 which is the factory "short" shifter (it is shorter, just not by a lot- maybe 20-25%) shows as fitting in all E60s.

Does anyone on here have a short shifter installed on there 530i? I'm thinking of trying the oem short shifter and seeing if it works, does anyone know of anything else that works for sure?
