It came from Function First, which seems to be a Porsche focused company (found them on Rennlist) but the knobs fit our BMW's perfectly, and I learned after getting mine that the owner actually dd's a 6mt e90 M3.

If your car is a garage kept 2nd car like mine, the aluminum knob is ideal. The added weight, even over the zhp knob seems to blast through the inherent notchiness and smoothed the selector transitions out a bit. The grip position is so awesome in that it's a beautifully simple design that happens to feel most effective, (short of a full blown extended race shifter). If you daily your car and it sits in the sun (or extreme cold) you might opt for the delrin knob (which I also have and like a lot).

Anyway, bump for a cool company with a lot of positive reviews over on Rennlist, and at least one (mine, I haven't looked for others) on here.
Is there any difference between the model-year variants? Or all they all the same?
