Thanks for the replies guys. It looks like too much hard work !
I've decided to try and replace the shifter with the Hartge style shifter.........

Next question therefore....how hard is it to remove the existing auto gearlever. I have heard it's just a question of pulling hard on it upwards, is this true ? Is putting the new one on the same type of procedure but in reverse ?
Many thanks.

that is exactly an easy swap...i had those before modding it to an m5 shifter...it's totally a direct,straight forward and easy mod...just pull the old knob out and push the new hartge knob in...the pushing is easy, the pulling out is a bit tough...just beware not to knock your face with that oem knob of yours(while pulling it out)...lol
