Needs a bit more investigation but I obtained a gearshift linkage from an E36 which has the same gearbox. It is much shorter than the e39 one which results in the gearchange being further forward where the transmission tunnel flares out. Much more like I have got in various Marlin photos from shows.
On offering all the bits up I can’t see any reason why it won’t work and allows me to position the gearstick far more centrally.
