These has been the most popular option.





Then there is also the BMW LCI Knob which lights up.

The Raceseng knobs come with a adapter for installing it onto the shifter rod.. You do have to carefully pull the boot off the OEM shifter then work it onto the new setup.

I picked this knob because it weighs 2 lbs. Which makes a big difference in shifter feel and motion.

They make lots of styles and I even got one for my 2017 MX-5 RF Club w?Brembo

Don't you have to separate the stock boot and knob? I thought they are both attached and comes as one pice.

There are several other styles for the car. I picked this one because of its 2lb weight. I might even swap it out in the future.

So it might not look good to your eyes but I'm enjoying the setup much more than OEM.
