I've been dying to replace the knob since I picked up my G80. So just yank the old one up and out, dab some super glue, then pound the new one into place?

Did the knob mod as well. Wish I could find the mperf cf knob without the boot but this is still pretty nice. I had the mperf cf knob and alcantara tristitched boot on my f82 and loved it.

Did you put it in 2nd gear and pull from the backseat? Mess with the boot at all? Also did you add a touch of glue? |

Don't pop a blood vessel and don't hit yourself in the head with the knob Both almost happened this time around. Glue is not necessary but I did it on this one.

All you have to do is reuse the substrate from the stock boot and glue the F8x boot onto the stock, square substrate. |

Take a look at this thread:
https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1840231 Apparently, I tapped into a different power source that made the illumination stay on a few seconds after ignition off. |

I had to buy the shifter with the boot when all I wanted was the boot. Before then, I was looking for that CF knob and couldn't find it alone - you gotta buy the entire thing.
