I have that shift knob, the amazon one. When I shift hard it comes off the shifter lmao

[@e36leo36]

My friend gave me one off eBay and it looks a lot more like the real zhp than the Amazon knob

[@vassamoylov9902]

The zhp shift knob actually was introduced on the 2003 330i first since the zhp 330ci was introduced in 2004

[@RaceGerman]

I actually believe zhp started in 2003 with the sedan. In 2004 they made a coupe version. Internet says it started in 2003

[@henrik1743]

Nope, My 2002 Bmw 330i 6 speed manual m sport has this shift knob (german)

Great video ! I think that the oem top cover is made of glass and the amazon one has plastic on it

[@RaceGerman]

No, the OEM one is plastic as well. Just nicer

[@goodtimesandalpines5442]

Aren’t ZHP’s supposed to be 6 speeds?? The knob you showed was a 5 speed

[@RaceGerman]

ZHPS did come with a 6 speed, but BMW created the same knob for 5 and 6. We sell both

[@extendochiefer]
