Installed my Avantgarde / C63 Shift knob

for once, managed to get at lower price than the US! Found one on ebay germany for £50, ($70).
Really easy to fit, there's a video here if any needs a guide.

ignore where the guy talks about working on the collar. there is nothing to it. just one holding nut. one twist and it falls down.

Good info. I still would like to put it as it is on 6MT. I don't need the gear numbers, and if someone else will drive it.... never mind, no one else should drive it... haha

Is there a different part number for this with black leather? I think I'll pick this up as well, since I've never really liked the look or feel of the aluminum knob (I think it looks and feels like plastic)

Post some pics when you do. I'm looking at the ones on the site and I'm not sure if I like the cut outs on the back or not. Also, let me know how it feels in your hand.
EDIT: OMG do I love the suede cross stitched interior though. Also, my Mercedes garage is a Brabus dealer.. hmm...

Is the Brabus knob illuminated orange, or is that just a reflection? Also, that's totally disappointing that the standard knob is plastic, but not surprising.

Looks great, but seems dark. Is that the same light grey as in the interior code 118 light grey/black combination or is the lighting just making it look deeper grey?
