MOMO Silver Combat Shifter

Abstract - After swapping out my interior wood trim for titanium silver trim, I needed a new shift knob to match. The stock OEM wood shifter just looks out of place.

Purchase - Bought 2^nd Hand from E46Fanatic member.

Parts - MOMO Silver Combat Shifter

Installation - The old difference between a manual and an automatic shifter is the locking mechanism that prevents an automatic transmission from shifting into reverse and park from neutral and drive modes without driver acknowledgements.

By installing any manual shifter on an automatic such as the MOMO Combat Shifter, you loose the protection from the locking mechanism. Automatic transmission owners need to be more careful with shifting modes.

The MOMO Combat Shifter can be installed in a few minutes. The OEM shifter is a friction fit install. Put the shifter in neutral and pull up has hard as you can. Be careful not to hit yourself in the head when the shifter comes off because it will come flying at you.

The MOMO Combat Shifter has a screw base that comes off easily. Underneath, there are three torque screws equally spread apart. Use a hex wrench and secure it to the shifter. Try to install the shifter as low as possible to eliminate the gap between the shifter and the leather boot. Once secured, screw in the base and the installation is comlete.
