    Default 740i Shifter Knob

    Will a 1994 740I auto shifter knob fit my 95 auto 525I. I looked at some pics and they look the same. I am about to go to a pull a part and see if I can grab this knob before its gone. Price will be $1.67.

    1994 was the year when BMW changed from E32 to E38 from September 1994. Is it a 32 or 38?
    Anyway, it will fit. And if not, you will not go bankrupt for $ 1.67.

    If it looks the same it'll fit. E38's sytarted with the 95 model year.

    Well mission Failed! That car was completly stripped of anything worth getting. I was laughing at myself when I got to it. It was in one of the last rows of course so I had to walk forever. Oh well.
