I finally got around to installing the ICT gearknob, man those old ones are made to STAY on. Poked the wires into the right coloured holes on the back of the switch illumination plug and snapped it all back together.
I'll have to remove it again as the tape I wrapped up top to stop the loose fit wasnt enough...nothing worse than loose boots.
The quality is very good, I'm still not convinced about the aesthetics of straying too from the look of the OEM mushroom. This was the cheaper alternative. I'll see how it wears in.
Heres how it looks, I'll post a night shot later.

On a side note, my BMW M Coupe had a lighted shift **** from the factory and I never reconnected it after I had to remove the **** to change the boot. I just decided I prefered it without the night light. Again, just personal taste.
