As a result, after installation, the gear shifting system behaves according to the manufacturer's standards, without the need for non-factory adaptations.

Construction and integration with the vehicle's installation

The lever belongs to the Gear levers, connectors and cables group, which means it works with both mechanical and electrical components of the transmission control system. The selector's design features integrated connectors that allow for direct connection to the BMW wiring harness, minimizing the risk of installation errors. Using an original solution facilitates proper cooperation with control modules and vehicle safety systems.
