It doesn't know it's not a Toyota ZF Supra shift install done the hard way.

[INEOS OG]

Well my Supra shifter install was going just swell until I got excited that the Grenadier knob came off the shift lever easily. Yep, you guessed it, I ripped the ribbon connector clean off the Grenadier shifter base.

The good news is the Supra shifter and the Grenadier shifter are physically identical with the exception of the trim ring that goes through the center console and the Grenadier trim clips on to the Supra shifter body.

I have no idea will happen when I plug this in and start it up but I will let you know but everything else has been an easy swap once you dismantle the console.

Just need @GrenadierUSA to make new cup holder/console covers with a Supra appropriate cutout instead of the BMW one. That way you can simply swap the entire unit.

Naw, it is mostly back together. I actually have their center console cup holder assembly and unfortunately the cup holder unit came out in pieces. I already reached out to Brad to see if he can print me another cup holder.

I don't recommending doing it this way but if you do buy a Supra ZF shifter don't discard the base it is the same ZF unit used in the Ineos.

Almost good as new. If anyone knows where to source center console screws the IG gods took several of mine hostage during this swap. I left them in the Grenadier USA cupholder and spilled them trying to get the very precisely fit cupholder out of its slot.

Brad at Grenadier USA took pity on me and sent out a cupholder today to replace the one which came out in pieces. He is great people making great parts.

I called two Ineos parts departments to find out just out of curiosity to see what a new IG shifter would have cost, only one called me back and was going to check price and availabilty and I have not heard back from them.

I will guess $1,100 and a 4-6 motnth wait.

I've been thinking about my broken ZF IG shifter, or I should say the ribbon of my broken ZF IG shifter and decided to start looking around for a replacement ribbon and little was available.

Ineos will happily sell me a new shifter for ~$700 for essentially the same shifter that we got from Toyota for $139-$175 that Toyota retails for $252.

Neither Ineos, Toyota, nor BMW, offers individual parts for their shifters but I found one similar on Ebay (similar not the same) so I knew someone was making them and kept searching. I stumbled on a seller on Aliexpress that offered what looked like the right ribbon but I needed to see both ends of the ribbon to know.

Score, the ribbon used in the 2020-2025 Supra and 2023-2025 IG ZF shifters were used in the late teen (2017-2019 BMW ZF shifters and are searchable as BMW Type D shifter ribbons.

Getting the factory ribbon out of the IG ZF shifter is easy with the shifter on the bench (or club chair) held in by 4 small torx. From there the shifter base separates itself from the casing and removing the ribbon is the same as relieving the ribbon on the handle end.
