Wow that is close
So your semi-bent 128i SSK has 2,4,6 is simmilar to my level
But your 1,3,5 is further away from the console than mine.
I'd say mine is about 8mm longer than to your throw (measured from Dack's standard bottom of shift knob)
For me to bend n54 lever to the same center as you, it would be ever so slightly longer than yours.
In any case I recommend anyone to reach out to your local SSK installed 1 or 3 series owner to get a feel for the short 50-60mm throws and make a personal decision. That is how I decided on my path.
PS @Kgolf31 what is the phone mount you are using?
Did you chop off the entire Cup holder or have you done what I did and made one of the sides a support stand for the phone holder?

I should add that the knob is bent left/right in relation to the car...not forward/rear. It initially sat a bit more right than what I liked...took it off and bent it over.
Personally, the BMW Performance SSK is a bit overkill for DDing, I'll completely agree to that. I thought my OE Z4M was short until this was installed, and the 128 SSK makes the Z4M feel like a train handbrake.
The phone mount is actually a tablet mount. It holds my Nexus 7 tablet I use to run data for autocross via Solostorm (

The mount is a ProClip Mount. They have one that can attach to the vent or to the side of the console.

Then you can choose your custom Phone/Tablet mount to attach to your mount (via screws). I needed something to hold a tablet while autocrossing and it held up perfectly.
I never had a cup holder there.
