I put one in mine tonight. I had been putting it off for fear of issues, but it went swimmingly well. I used wire cutters to remove the plastic grommet which held the boot to the knob. It came off easily(just be careful you don't cut the wires to the knob). Carefully remove the plastic surround/boot on the Z4 and disconnect the wire clip to the knob. I put the car in 5th and pulled until the knob slid off. Reverse the process to install. The thing I like best is the lighting of the new knob is much brighter and more even and the metal ring at the base of the knob is a nice match to the aluminum interior. It is shorter than the OEM knob which may bother some. I have not driven with it yet, but it worked fine sitting in the garage.
