hey for some reason i have a bent shift linkage and a non bent one.. someone must have unbent it because i remember the shift linkage having a bent rod.. does anyone have a picture of how the shift linkage connects to the selector red and the shifter. i cant get the bent one to line up but yet the unbent one works..

My Z4 lever was straight. Are you certain that it's the stock one?

thanks man those pictures really helped! Still have minor issue cannot shift into lower gears, gotta adjust the pitch on the back side! Should be fixed today! And for the other guy, shift linkage and shift lever are different.
