Aftermarket shift boot Recommendation
I know a lot of you are anti ebay... but this was a true leather shift boot and I'm gonna attach a picture of mine just to show you how great it is
He also sells some console add ons and a really cool handbrake sleeve
I'm pretty sure he does any custom colors
He made mine yellow leather with black stitching.
Just request the stitching before you order it, and the leather. He'll let you know. And it fits the 8 perfectly, pictures attached.

I bought from this guy. I'm pretty sure it ships from the UK. I bought a red/black leather scheme and it worked great. It fit perfect to the shift boot hooks under the console piece.
I'd buy from them again. I did buy the console cover piece, but haven't installed it yet....didn't seem like it would be very good fit, but i honestly haven't tried.

the handbrake sleeve looks great.. i'll post some pics later. The console cover.. eh... I think it said something about glue? After that I kinda just lost interest..
let me know how it goes. Get some pics after.

Did you install yours wrong? Looks liek its under the black plastic piece instead of over it. looks cool though.
Grungepup and I both just got black and red stitched leather ones tonight and after some trimming it fit okay. It's a little long but it works. And it was $7.99 shipped. I will post pics tomorrow

love to see pics of that
One of my clips on the inside kinda broke off..
NOT because of me..
it was like that
anyways point being it created a light hole which gave me some excessive noise..
probably try rigging it when I get it back though.
that might be why you think it looks different though.

You know whats funny? The hardest part about it fitting is the thickness of the leather. This boot is actually really nice leather (comparable to the $50-$60 one another member has) and it should wear just fine. My onlt concern is the stitching but we shall see. But honestly, for $7 shipped, I may just order another to have as a backup.

Got my black w/red stitching boot the other day from these guys along with the monster **** I ordered from another ebay seller. Fitment is good, quality is good, and install was easy mainly because the bastard clip was already broken for some reason. Anyway what do ya think?

looks just like mine after I fixed the boot to go over the black lining.
I just think the leather quality is great for its price. Glad some people found topgaits useful.

I ordered one from GB, in black/brown leather, nice looking except the brown is 5 shades too dark and the top of it doesnt have the plastic ring sewn into it as like the OEM, the dog now has a new chew toy.
