Alacantara Shift Boot E82

Hey Guys, I bought an E82 alacantara shift boot to go with the shift knob, but it turns out it was for a LHD car, and supposedly they don't make any for RHD cars. Anyone know where I can get a alacantara shift boot for my right hand drive 2012 125i E82? (OEM or aftermarket idm)

Chasing one to go with the performance shift knob as it doesn't look fabulous without .

Thanks guys

Ryan

Drop Redline Goods a a line - they may be able to help you. I have bought several alcantara products from them, and all have been good quality.

I've heard mixed, but mostly positive reviews for Coby

Edit*
Misread your original post (LHD/RHD), but I'd still give them a try. All they have to do is flip their template.
