Default Re: Converting from AutoStick to manual-looking shift boot

- Push the shift boot threw the center and set the shift *** inside


- Put the bottom cap on the shifter before you push the *** on. This is very important. be careful when pushing it on so that the cap does not get damaged


- Make sure there is material is all they around and able to get in the cap. If there is too much you will never be able to screw it on so what I had in the previous pic is good enough


- Put the car in neutral and jently push the ring down makeing sure there is just enough material tucked under to hide the edges.


- push it down tight and there you go. Put the car in park. Done


- The switch with the W and S is still useable, you can feel for it right threw the leather and switch it at any time.
Noted!!

Beaner, you rock. I'm planning a lil sum-sump'n for mine along these lines...
