Yes, because the proper driving style is to take your eyes off the road and look down at your shift knob after every shift.

looks stupid, if you have to take your hand off the shift knob and glance down to check and inform yourself that you are in the proper gear you should not be driving stick shift.

The last gen M5 had a back lit shift knob which was very nice.

this mod won't help you in anyway, it's just for display purposes... it's not rice IMO.
