Default Custom Shifter Boot

I just wanted to see what every one thought about my new shifter boot. I just got it in today, I love it. And if you are wondering Why it is black and blue and my interior is tan it is because i am going to change every thing to black.


if you want one and you use this link you can get 5% discount. They have them just just about every can you can think of, for the guys with the short sticks on the shifters they can make the shift boot as short as you want it.:

Hmm, looks like it clashes with everything else. What else do you have that matches that shade of blue?

dirtybird: it is a great boot and it was a really nice fit. it already had the slits in it so all you have to do is slid the retaining ring into place and snap it back in.


just so every one know that also have matching e brake covers.

Definately doesn't do it for me but since you're changing your interior theme I think it will end up looking great.. its definately a quality looking piece! I've always loved tan and black combinations a LOT, and if it were me I woulda gotten the two tone tan black.

Your shifter seems like it's longer than mine. Mine doesn't stick out that far from the console. Looks nice and I bet with the interior redone it looks great. I just don't care for the white stitching

the stick is 6 and 1/2 inches most people from what i have seen have 6 inches. i just did not like the 6 inch it was to short for me. i think i have found a guy who is going to strip his interior to make his car light and i am going to try to get that stuff for my car. Then the boot will fit with the rest of the car alot better.
