I doubt if you can just buy the emblem on their own, definitely not from BMW dealer. They will only sell the complete knob. The illuminated version is about £120!! I can give you part number if required. Might be cheap versions of emblem on eBay.

Cheers Pete, maybe the only way to sort the issue, if you get chance please dig the part number out, much appreciated.

The emblem mentioned on eBay in post above looks to be the way to go if it's just the emblem you want.

If you really want to go for a complete illuminated gear knob I've found two options on the parts site I use.

1) Illuminated leather gearstick knob (M-SPORT/5-GANG ) (25112231550) - £ 139.70
2) Illuminated leather gearstick knob (M-TECHNIK) (25112231551) - £ 121.01


Strangely they both have in the description the following :-

M-Technik ILLUMINATED LEATHER SHIFTING KNOB
Teilegruppe Automatic transmission CVT belt

You really must check at a dealer to make sure you are ordering the correct part at that price. I input the details for my Z3 M Coupe to bring these part numbers up. Hope this helps.

I have a non-illuminated M gear knob that I could sell.

Strangely, neither of my Ms has had an illuminated knob.
Neither of mine did either, had to replace both with new ones, I guess when they wear out/break previous owners didn't like the cost of new illuminated ones
