Thanks again Gene! I have to admit, that picture is shocking for the purpose intended!! I'll get some more ones done tomorrow, and i'll send them across to you again Gene!

Will the trim for RHD fit LHD? Damn I really want it :P

Ah, i probably should have mentioned that! It will only fit RHD vehicles. Didn't really think when writing up the info. Sorry :(

Jon, make sure you are selecting the "direct link" address on photobucket. I got the same error message before I figured this out. Totally off topic but... I couldn't imagine driving and shifting with my L hand. Does 1st gear still start to the top left and progress to the right through the gears? :unsure: . Holy sh.., and I drive with the left hand too!

Is the iDrive controller different between M5 and ordinary 5? If it is, how much will it be shipped to New Zealand? TIA.

rogerj, yes the 1st gear is still in the same place as you guys. However, being the M5 with SMG, it doesn't have that set up. I couldn't imagine changing gears with my right hand!! Lol!! Thanks for the advice on the error message too. Will have a stab at that next time i upload a pic.

530 nz, as for shipping the iDrive, i don't know how much it would cost, but i reckon you'd be better off buying one from a supplier in either NZ or Oz. I can look into it for you though if you wish. I think the controller is the same throughout the regular E60's and the M5's, but if i remember correctly, there was a change on the facelift year. Someone may like to validate this for me though... Hint hint!! Lol!!

Hi mate, does it look like this?

No it doesn't mate. It's not as smooth as that. It has a more rippled edge if that makes sense!?

Yeah I do. That means it looks exactly the same as mine. Thanks!
