I don't like my B8 shifter, looks exactly the same as my wife's Q7.

I love the B8.5 round shift **** but don't want to torch the plastic piece 90 degrees and get burn in the summer.

Anybody have the S-line shift **** in their B8 (with black & carbon fiber interior)

Thanks in advance!

I upgraded mine to the perforated S-line shifter in 10 minutes with no modification at all. Looks great and no heat twist. I can't understand what they were thinking with the stock shifter, this one should have come with it instead.

Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks togatown, I am sold on this.

Can I ask where you purchased your shift ****? Ebay or other online store?

togatown

Got it from this Vendor on Ebay, took 2-3 weeks to ship from Germany and is a genuine Audi part.

Just ordered one.

Love the B8.5 round shift **** but I don't want to F'up my car and torch the white plastic piece by 90 degree.

Thanks!

Cool, PM me if you need any help on installing it.

Is there a black alcantara 6MT shift boot?

togatown

Sorry, no idea on if something like that exists. Never seen one on any of the forums.

I wonder if I can get one with Red Stitching

Swap the boot...
