1st I would like to say I HATE this new color scheme. It hurts my eyes and is hard to read.

To the point. Anyone know where I can get some aftermarket leather shift and brake boots, preferably a black one with red stitching?

Thanks

 

Make one. they're not too hard. Craig's got some info on his page about it.

 

Matt don't see the info on Craig's 'How To' page but another problem..no sewing machine.

 

he used to have one up thereI think.. I remember him doing one a while back..

your next bet is a upholstery shop. buy the color of leather/vinyl you want and take them your old boot. they'll have the threas and everything else and the ability to sew them up and make 'em purdy. probably a lot cheaper than buying one online somewhere too. if you have everything out of the car and ready to go, then they'll probably do it in just a few minutes and charge a $20 or so. that's of course if they're not swamped with business.....

 

Go to the GD forum. DanNY was doing a GD, don't know if it's still on.

 

Dan's group deal was for 5th and 4th Gens. He said that the 3rd Gens are coming soon but it's been over a month and I need a shift boot and brake boot now. I will look around for an upholstery shop.

 

did the 3rd gen ever came with a ebrake boot? if so someone needs to contact me.

just a few more weeks...if you need a shift boot now let me know.

 

Dan, the ebrake has a plastic cover which is stock. But it can easily be cut off to accomodate a leather brake boot. I cut mine off and I'm currently running a vinyl shift boot and brake boot. I would like to get two matching black leather with red stitching shift boot and brake boot. That's why I have been waiting for the next group deal so I can get the pair at the same time and have it match. But if it's possible to get just the shift boot now and get a matching brake boot later, I'm willing to pay now for the shift boot.

 

it's on my page like Matt said
in how-to under "homemade shifter and ebrake boots"
I ended up taking out the brake boot but the shift boot is still there and works great
whole thing cost me about $5
