A very quick video showing the final solution for one of our good customers (a regular!) when installing their CAE Ultra Shifter.
(It's only a quick video showing the finished article and not a build video I'm afraid).
Our customer purchased a genuine CAE Shifter #nofakeshifter and required a professional install with a superb visual finish using Carbon Fibre Panels.
Seeing as no Carbon Panels exist, we had to make them from scratch.
We made a custom 1.0mm Carbon Panel to use in the Gear Lever surround with the cut out for the CAE Shifter as well as the Reverse Lock Cable and Spring assemblies.
We also made a custom 1.0mm Carbon Panel for the Front Ashtray area with the cut out for the Reverse Lock Spring.
These fit perfectly in their surrounds and then are secured by 8 (4 each panel) tiny magnets bonded to the surrounds and Carbon Panels to keep them in position.
They are never solid mounted so are easily removed if service work is required with the CAE Ultra Shifter.

Separate to the BMW CAE Ultra Shifter, the customer also requested all the standard BMW On-Board Screen and Navigation equipment be removed to save weight (Track Car).
So we installed a small Bluetooth Amp powering 2x rear parcel shelf speakers, along with an on/off switch on the Carbon Panel to kill the music quickly if required.
We also added an electric fan override on/off switch for max engine cooling in an emergency.
Plus a genuine BMW 12v socket with safety plug for a 12v Tyre Inflator.
The last electrical item in the Carbon Panel was a dual USB socket to power the phone charger (via short lightening lead) and also power the GoPro equipment.

The Carbon Panel was finished with 2 Yosh Phone Holders which secure the customer's phone in landscape mode during travel.
These are super strong magnetic systems and work extremely well.

These are the thoroughly thought out and well-executed custom solutions after listening to the customers own requirements.

Thanks for watching.
