sweet~!!! :D

 

Haha just did this "mod". Took me roughly an hour to do it all, but I'm a noob when it comes to car mods.

 

the black leather boot i ordered had red stitching's cuz i forgot to specify which color stichings i wanted. Oh well. Gotta have something red in the interior.

 

i'd be willing to swap my stock (full black) boot with yours if you want. PM me if you're interested.

this mod is tricky! would definitely fool me.

 

...may have to try this. lol, see how many people that dont know anything about cars thinking that you can just shift with the steering wheel controls without any clutch.

 

I actually dig the look with the red stiches. I got the boot from this ebay seller for $20 lol. High quality.

You can choose the stitching colors btw i just forgot to.

I might post a DIY on how to do this for atx people.

 

oh man that's crafty.

I should do the opposite on mine. Then I could only use like 2 specific gears

 

lol that is prettty cool.

 

Why would you want to do this?

 

i guess its for AT ppl. so they wont regret buying one. either way , i find mod pretty cool looking. not something i would do, but still pretty cool.

 

thats ironic lol

 

alfy you should get one of the 2010 3's, they look really nice. Just checked one out at the dealer the other day

 

holy thread revive lolz

 

Definitely liking it. If I had an auto I would do this for sure.

 

Oh I liked this mod =D Its tough to decide if i'd do it cuz i actually like the way

the AT shifter pad looks =P

 

i was thinking about doing that but i just got my lights fixed that tell me what gear im in lol.

 

good lord this thread is old. i remember helping karyl do this....

 

exsequor you should do a DIY. i for one would be interested as im sure others would be as well.

 

now all you guys need is a short shifter

 

Here's the DIY.
