Hi.

The gearchange on my 1988 e30 is pretty vague.

Was thinking of changing the shifter whilst the bushes are being done.

I've just read on another forum (BMW car - old post) that the Z3 shifter wont work on cars manufactured before 1989 :(

Has anyone with a car <1989 tried this??


Any info much appreciated. :)
