in his pics here, the top round one , is the tech 1 and early m3 "mushroom" round one, same as ravs new one above, from early e30s

then changed to the bottom style, facelift cars,318is, tech 2 sports etc

you get either the gear knob, or an all in 1 knob/gaiter, as fitted to m3`s

you can buy the mtech one now still brand new for £50 odd from bmw (without gaitor) , adit has probably got a few

I think that's how it got into that state... vigorous handling 8O

Still prefer the mushroom knob!
