Shift Knobs, Shift Boots, & Shift Handles

BMW Shift Knobs, Shift Boots, & Shift Handles for BMW 3 Series E36 (1992-1998)

Your shift knob and your steering wheel (along with the pedals) are some of the most important control surfaces in your car. We believe these surfaces should not only look exceptional but perform and function beyond expectations. We offer shift knobs that are Original BMW parts, MOMO from Italy, and other brands that we feel make driving more enjoyable and enhance the technical sophistication that your BMW embodies.

BMW shift knobs are easy to replace. On manual transmission models, the knob is pressed into a groove at the top of the shift lever. It simply needs to be pulled off - place the transmission into 2nd gear and yank hard towards your chest (not your head). 2nd gear offers a better leverage point than anything else. To install the new knob just slide it over the shift lever and press down firmly. You will feel the knob 'snap' into place.

Note that some factory knobs are a one-piece design with the boot. Upgrading your knob may require a new boot as well.

This Genuine BMW manual shift knob fits all 1982 and on BMWs. It "snaps" onto your shifter level just as your stock shift knob does, and can be installed in a matter of seconds. This knob is much shorter and smaller than the "standard" knobs, and is weighted for better shifter feel. Available with your choice of either 5 speed or 6 speed shift pattern (select your option below).

This knob is right out of the BMW Performance catalog, BMW Performance Shifter installed

and features supple black alcantara suede (with great grip!) and a weighted body. This knob was specifically designed and marketed for the E82 / E88 1 Series and the E90/E92 3 Series, BUT it also fits all manual transmission BMWs from 1982 through present. This means this great looking and great feeling shifter knob can be used on almost every BMW (except 1981 and earlier).

Note that many newer models have a 1-piece knob + boot. This is standard on most M cars and on all cars that have an illuminated shift knob. We sell new replacement boots to use with this shift knob, choose the option below if you would like one included with your order (not for E9X M3).
