auto zhps shift boot and e brake boot black leather material or alcantara

Yes they did in fact do that. I bet it's in the FAQ. Maybe not...

I have the alcantara seats, yet my shift boot, e-brake boot and steering wheel are leather. I would have guessed that it was tied to the material of the steering wheel, I have a late build 05 after everything was switched to leather. :(

I have leather wheel, alcantara shift and ebrake boots. Classic cpo replacement scenario

exact same here, too (2005)

I believe May of 2005 was when BMW changed over to leather wheel/boot/ebrake, fwiw.

My car has an August 05 build date- only alcantara is the seats.

Droid X. Tapatalk. Use it.

Yes. It was the spring of 2005. BMW stopped with the alcantara wheels. I believe they also stopped including shift boots and ebrake boots, too. Premature wear cited for discontinuance.

A little late for them to realize "premature wear" after they've been doing it for years. lol
Too bad the sedans got left out of that loop.

They still had about 17 months left in the run. BMW was about 24 months into the run when they made the decision.
