Cool Auto Shifter

Does anyone know if there is a way to change the shift lever on the automatic so when in manual mode pushing forward down shifts and pulling back upshifts?

anything's possible.

actually, someone did this exact mod on his G35 coupe. do a search for this on G35Driver.com and you'll find some insight.

personally, i like how it is as it is more intuitive to me. others feel differently (like yourself).

Im sure its possible....a few guys on the E46 forum have done it to their 3 series. My 330i was the opposite way, i actually found it really annoying, but maybe you prefer it a different way.

Can't you just reverse the wiring?? Might be complicated to do with the paddle shifters but I don't see it being a huge deal..

People have done this in their Acuras by switching the wires.
