Don't know what year/model you are getting but http://www.bimmerworld.com/html/e30-...ebuild-kit.htm carries a pretty good selection for ordering.

Grats!

Whatever you do just don't buy a cheap ebay one.

No I haven't but I've read stories on the e30 forums about the levers snapping and all sorts of other shit.

The Z4 shifter fits right in place.
