Talking UB.C Helping an owner out

I got this e-mail today from my website (I know I need to update it)

It's the form that I have up...

05 - What can I do to better this site? = Well, not exactly about your site, but I have a question. I too had a T handle shift knob and decided to upgrade to the pistol knob for the sportier feel, but didn't realize it wouldn't fit. My question is how much did the shifter arm cost and where can I find one for my '95 318ti? I searched BavAuto for a shifter arm but got nothing as a result. Do you have the part number for the shifter arm you purchased? Thanks in advance!
06 - How often do you visit this site? = Once every other month or so

No here's my first response...

expensive, call them and tell them your situation and they will tell you
the exact part you need.

Go here for more info...

Now a heads up, on cars previous to 97, if you change the shifter arm to
make the pistol grip handle fit, your car will be able to go from D to N
without having to hit the brakes, I didn't mind that one bit, but just
giving you a heads up

Then his reply, (and the part that I really like)...

Well, I found the product number for the shifter shaft and was able get a hold of it on BavAuto. When I was searching for shifter arms, I kept coming across items going for $200+ so that scared me for a bit, lol. I'd like to thank you once again for helping me out and hopefully there will be more DIY's from you!
See it's stuff like that, that makes me feel like we're not just having fun on these forums we're actually helping other owners out. So a to us and cheers guys
