P/N for X5M "M" shifter...

call me "shallow" ... but I would like to retrofit the X5M's "M" logo shifter to my 2013 X5 50 M-Sport.

Anyone know the part # for that part?

Thanks in advance

Well, you do have the ///M package and the same base engine Not too far off the X5 ///M

maybe its the factory mule for the recently rumored M 7 ...

there is a black 50 in my neighborhood that has an ///M badge on it, clearly (tailpipes) not an X5M ... I think I would draw the line at that!

I think I've seen this guy in NYC multiple times. Beautiful 7 MSport - the fake M sticker on the back ruins everything.

The shifters look identical.. only the black part ( plastic?? ) has the ///M logo on it. Wouldn't it be easier to just replace the black plastic part? Maybe it is easier said than done

However, I wish the X5 had a better looking shifter like the other models.

My 2010 sports package had the sport shifter which looked a lot nicer to me.

here are some pictures of the shifter I am referring too.

Yeah I think all I need to do is swap the black part, problem is that is apparently not an individual part... so I will have to get the shiny bit also...

knowing my mechanical prowess I will probably need it!

I'd be more interested in getting the Ceramic shifter/iDrive controls from the 6/7 series...
