I have the OEM SSK, and love it. For the price ($183.00 from Tischer), it's very hard to beat considering you get a new boot, lever, circlip, plastic retainer and shift knob. From everything I've read, the AA unit does provide a 5% shorter throw (can you even measure that?), at the expense of a longer, much more involved installation /longer installation time and a higher price. The AA didn't make sense to me when I was considering the two.
The UUC is fairly new, so someone else has to give their opinion about it.

Get a Riss CDV while you're at it, since you'll be under the car anyway.

This might sound like a stupid question, but does the OEM ssk work for the E92 328? It says it fits the E90, E92 330, but there's no such thing as a 330 coupe. And if it doesn't, does anyone know of a ssk that does?

I dont think my 335i needs one. I have had short shifters on my last four Audis...and I do understand the benefits and disadvantages of having them. I am fine without it on my 335i.

the BMW one is a perfect option. I would not want my through to be shorter. Just make sure you get a better gear knob because the one that comes with the kit is a piece of crap.

lol gen e92. That girl in your sig looks EXACTLY like my buddy from Tiawan. Additionally, doesn't the OEM ssk change the overall position of the lever closer to the front of the car? Hence forth there is a longer reach for the odd gears??

Rogue Engineering
I just received the Rogue Engineering SSK. Go to their website and you'll see the difference in the design. It's not just a shorter shift lever, but it's the entire mechanism that is tightened up and redesigned to be better.
It does cost a little more $300, but when you drive the car everyday, it's worth it. http://www.rogueengineering.com/Merc...egory_Code=SSK
