Rogue Engineering E82 1M Short Shift kit
Rogue's 1M short shift kit is designed from years of experience building BMW shifters, and addresses many unique shortcomings of the OEM shifting system that are often left ignored with more basic short shifter solutions. From the shift carrier on, Rogue has improved on BMW's own shifter design.
Rogue's modified BMW shift carrier raises the pivot point of the shifter, effectively raising the handle height without increasing the length of the throw for a more ergonomic solution. The carrier also perfectly centers the shift lever, giving the correct shifting geometry, ensuring a smooth feel. Delrin carrier bushings round out the carrier, and give the shift lever itself a stable base with no deflection, for added precision. By relocating the shift lever's position up and to the rear, the shifter is positioned closer to the steering wheel for a better, more ergonomic feel. A special selector rod also allows for better geometry and a properly aligned shift mechanism. Price = $395.00 Kits will be ready to ship in 2 weeks. Please note we only have 4 units left on the first shipment. To place an order please give us a call at 866.963.4520 or you can send paypal payment to info@ind-distribution.com

You could but I would highly recommend going to a shop with a lift.

Are these notchy or smooth? Have heard that some can be more on the notchy and clunky side. Thanks guys!

Hey Nate,
I asked you this in a different thread but perhaps you overlooked it. Two questions, coming from someone that had the Rogue SSK on my E39 M5 and absolutely loved it. According to the description here, there are 2 things that just sound a bit counterintuitive to me. Can you confirm if my understanding is correct, and if so, your thoughts on it. I gather that: 1). The shift lever is taller than stock 2). It is pushed further out of the reach of the driver (i.e. closer to the dashboard) I've had many SSKs in many cars, and always the results was a shorter gear lever (and throws naturally), and if anything, closer to the driver. Am I missing anything here? TIA

Sorry for the confusion, the shift level is designed to place the shift knob slightly higher than factory, and closer to the driver.
