GOOD NEWS!!!

Since there are enough people the discount will be 30% PLUS an additional 15% Valentine's day discount for ordering before February 16th.

This brings the individual price to $55 including Paypal fees and shipping.

I am tyring to contact everyone now and hope to have your paypal transactions by this weekend so I can order these by Sunday for the additional 15% discount. If you are not contacted in the next day, please feel free to Paypal me the $55 or email me with questions. My Paypal and email are the same: br_1868@hotmail.com

Thanks for your prompt payments,
Brian


Edit: the 1.5" short ones are $55 each and the standard length ones will be $48 shipped.

They will all be Alcantara.

Thanks for the heads up on the code. Bought a Nappa leather boot, 1" shorter than normal, silver stitching in an X pattern. $83 all told. Will hopefully be able to test all of the shifters with it installed. If anyone has any tips on anchoring the base of the boot to the surround, I'm all ears.

Didn't get an email, but I'm on the list.

I'll shoot the paypal monies over, just want to make sure my boot makes it to the right place. All you need is my shipping address?

May want to make another list with "paid" and "not paid" so we know where we stand.

I will add the paid to the list on the first page.

The modified stock, stock, UUC, Katech and B&M would all use the standard length boots.

The Hurst or any shifter with a **** height lowered more than about 3/4" from stock would look better with the 1.5" lower boot.

Kindly put your forum name on the Paypal transaction so I know who has paid on the list.

I will refund the $7 for the standard height ones where people paid for the 1.5" lower. I didn't find out there was an additional price cut for those until after I posted.

The UUC is a tall shifter. I would say the stock size would be best.

Here is a link to the thread discussing the installation.

Brian, I was under the impression the short boots were for the modified shifters. I have your original purple shifter. If the standard length is a better fit, please switch my order. Sorry for the mix-up.

Real fake suede, here I come!

UPDATE: I popped the shift **** off this morning and raised it 1.5" to simulate a shorter boot. While the result was better looking when the shifter was in neutral, the boot was too tight when the shifter was down in 2nd,4th, and 6th gears. Imagine that, he was right.
