Arrow Heat from lower boot ? solution here

I've done A4 to M6 conversion ...didn't have the rubber lower boot ..but I made a good solution for the heat leaking from under console...

the hardest part was removing the center console..thanks installuniversity..and used two layers of heat insulation matt

I hope it is useful

I can't imagine the stock boot would be more than $20-$30 even from the dealer...

Did it raise the console at all? Looks good.
